摘要
In our previous work [1], a new kind of inflation model was proposed, which has the interesting property that its perturbation equation of motion gets a correction of k4, due to the non-linearity of the kinetic term.Nonetheless, the scale-invariance of the power spectrum remains valid, both in large-k and small-k limits. In this paper, we investigate in detail the spectral index, the index running and the tensor/scalar ratio in this model, especially in the potential-driven case, and compare the results with the current PLANCK/BICEP observational data.We also discuss the tensor spectrum in this case, which is expected to be tested by future observations of primordial gravitational waves.
