Primordial black holes in non-canonical scalar field inflation driven by quartic potential in the presence of bump (2309.01239v2)

Abstract: Here, generation of Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) from quartic potential in the presence of a tiny bump in non-canonical inflationary model has been inquired. It is demonstrated that, a viable inflationary era can be driven through the quartic potential in non-canonical framework with a power-law Lagrangian density. Furthermore, setting a suitable function of inflaton field as a correction term (like a bump) to the quartic potential, causes the inflaton to slow down for a while. In such a short time span, the amplitude of the scalar perturbations power spectrum on small scales grows up sufficiently versus CMB scales. In addition to the bump feature, the enhancing effect of the $\alpha$ parameter of the Lagrangian on the amplitude of the scalar power spectrum has been shown. Fine tuning of three parameter Cases of the model results in generating of three Cases of PBHs. In addition, we investigate the secondary Gravitational Waves (GWs) produced during generation of PBHs and show that their contemporary density parameter spectra $(\Omega_{\rm GW_0})$ can be tracked down by GWs detectors.
