Superconformal inflationary \(\alpha\)-attractors




Abstract: Recently a broad class of superconformal inflationary models was found leading to a universal observational prediction ns=12/N and r=12/N2. Here we generalize this class of models by introducing a parameter alpha inversely proportional to the curvature of the inflaton Kahler manifold. In the small curvature (large alpha) limit, the observational predictions of this class of models coincide with the predictions of generic chaotic inflation models. However, for sufficiently large curvature (small alpha), the predictions converge to the universal attractor regime with ns=12/N and r=12alpha/N2, which corresponds to the part of the nsr plane favored by the Planck data.
