Inflation from Multiple Pseudo-scalar Fields: Primordial Black Hole Dark Matter and Gravitational Waves

We study a model of inflation with multiple pseudo-scalar fields coupled to a U (1) gauge field through Chern–Simons interactions. Because of parity-violating interactions, one polarization of the gauge field is amplified, yielding to an enhanced curvature perturbation power spectrum. Inflation proc...
