Description

Within the framework of inflationary model with field-dependent kinetic term for quartic and natural potentials, we investigate generation of the primordial black holes (PBHs) and induced gravitational waves (GWs). In this setup, we consider a kinetic function as G(ϕ) = gI(ϕ)(1+gII(ϕ)) and show that in the presence of first term gI(ϕ) both quartic and natural potentials, in contrast to the standard model of inflation, can be consistent, with the 68% CL of Planck observations. Besides, the second term gII(ϕ) can cause a significant enhancement in the primordial curvature perturbations at the small scales which results the PBHs formation. For the both potentials, we obtain an enhancement in the scalar power spectrum at the scales k 1012 Mpc1, 108 Mpc1, and 105 Mpc1, which causes PBHs production in mass scales around 1013M, 105M, and 10M, respectively. Observational constraints confirm that PBHs with a mass scale of 1013M can constitute the total of dark matter in the universe. Furthermore, we estimate the energy density parameter of induced GWs which can be examined by the observation. Also we conclude that it can be parametrized as a power-law function ΩGW (f/fc)n, where the power index equals n = 3-2/ln(fc/f) in the infrared limit f fc.
