Tracking quintessential inflation from brane worlds

Astrophysics 2009-11-07 v2

Abstract

We analyse the mechanism of quintessential inflation in brane world scenarios for a number of particle physics inspired scalar potentials. We constrain the parameter space of those scalar potentials and comment on the likelihood that we could discriminate these models from standard inflation, based on upcoming large scale structure and cosmic microwave background observations.
