Viable Curvaton Models from the $f_{NL}$ Parameter
2021
We show how to build a curvaton inflationary model motivated by scale-dependent non-Gaussianities of cosmological perturbations. In particular, we study the change of sign in the $f_{NL}$ parameter as a function of the curvaton field value at horizon crossing and identify it with the cosmic microwave background pivot scale. We devise a procedure to recover the curvaton model that provides the desired $f_{NL}$ parameter. We then present a concrete example of $f_{NL}$ and construct its parent model. We study the constraints applied to this model based on considerations taken on $f_{NL}$. We show that the hemispherical asymmetry can also be used to constrain the scale-dependence of $f_{NL}$ and the model parameters.
