Abstract
We derive constraints on the tensor to scalar ratio and on the background charge of the warped throat for Dirac-Born-Infeld inflation driven by D5-and D7-branes wrapped over cycles of the throat. It is shown that background charge well beyond the known maximal value is required in most cases for Dirac-Born-Infeld inflation to generate cosmological observables compatible with the WMAP3 (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe 3) data. Most of the results derived in this paper are insensitive to the details of the inflaton potential, and could be applied to generic warped throats. © IOP Publishing Ltd.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
