New one-parametric extension of the Starobinsky inflationary model

New one-parametric extension of the Starobinsky inflationary model

We propose a one-parametric extension of the Starobinsky $R+R^2$ model by adding the $(R+m^2\beta^2)^{3/2}$ term. The parameter $m$ is the inflaton mass, which is determined in the same way as in the Starobinsky model, and $\beta$ is a dimensionless constant. Using the Einstein frame and the scalar field potential, we …
