The Density Perturbation Power Spectrum to Second-Order Corrections in the Slow-Roll Expansion

Astrophysics 2009-11-06 v2

Abstract

We set up a formalism that can be used to calculate the power spectrum of the curvature perturbations produced during inflation up to arbitrary order in the slow-roll expansion, and explicitly calculate the power spectrum and spectral index up to second-order corrections.
