WMAP constraint on the P-term inflationary model
Abstract
In light of WMAP results, we examine the observational constraint on the P-term inflation. With the tunable parameter , P-term inflation contains richer physics than D-term and F-term inflationary models. We find the logarithmic derivative spectral index with on large scales and on small scales in agreement to observation. We obtained a reasonable range for the choice of the gauge coupling constant in order to meet the requirements of WMAP observation and the expected number of the e-foldings. Although tuning and we can have larger values for the logarithmic derivative of the spectral index, it is not possible to satisfy all observational requirements for both, the spectral index and its logarithmic derivative at the same time.
