Study of scalar and tensor power spectra in the generalized Starobinsky inflationary model using semiclassical methods
Abstract
In this work we solved the equation of scalar and tensor perturbations for the generalized Starobinsky inflationary model using the improved uniform approximation method and the phase-integral method up to third-order in deviation. We compare our results with the numerical integration. We have obtained that both semiclassical methods reproduce the scalar power spectra PS,T, the scalar spectral index nS, and the tensor-to-scalar ratio r. Also we present our results in the (nS , r) plane.
