Given the latest observational constraints coming from the joint analyses of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope, the Planck Satellite and other missions, we point out the possibility of reconciling fundamental particle-physics models of inflation with data by considering non-Bunch-Davies initial conditions for primordial density perturbations.

  1. When the Environment Speaks: Quantum Signatures in Non-Attractor Inflation

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    An open quantum system treatment of curvature perturbations during Ultra-Slow-Roll inflation shows that environmental decoherence erases the interference dip, modifies the growth slope, and induces oscillatory feature...

  2. Testing $\alpha$-attractor P-model of inflation by Cosmic Microwave Background radiation

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Polynomial α-attractor P-models of inflation accommodate Planck and Planck+ACT CMB data for ranges of reheating temperatures when decays and fragmentation are included.

  3. The implications of inflation for the last ACT

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A parameterized slow-roll model and a new exponential f(R) inflation model are constrained by P-ACT-LB-BK18 data, with the latter aligning to the ACT scalar spectral index preference in both standard and EDE frameworks.

  4. ACT-ing on inflation: Implications of non Bunch-Davies initial condition and reheating on single-field slow roll models

    astro-ph.CO 2025-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Non-Bunch-Davies initial conditions substantially improve the fit of various single-field slow-roll inflation models to updated n_s-r constraints from ACT DR6 combined with Planck, DESI, and BICEP/Keck data.

  5. Starobinsky Inflation in k-Essence Framework: Attractor Dynamics, Reheating, and Consistency with ACT DR6

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0

    A power-law non-canonical kinetic coupling F(φ)=1+Aφ^n revives the Starobinsky inflation potential's consistency with ACT DR6 CMB data while preserving attractor dynamics and yielding viable reheating.

  6. Constraining Quintessential Inflation with ACT: A Gauss-Bonnet Gateway

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet corrections with exponential or sech couplings shift quintessential inflation into the 1 sigma ACT region for r and ns, while tanh coupling remains disfavored.
