Abstract

I study a fresh inflationary model with a scalar field nonminimally coupled to gravity. An example is examined. I find that, as larger is the value of pp (the power of the scale factor), smaller (but larger in its absolute value) is the necessary value of the coupling ξ\xi to the inflaton field fluctuations can satisfy a scale invariant power spectrum.
