Cosmological Collider Signals of Non-Gaussianity from Higgs boson in GUT

Abstract: Cosmological Collider Physics gives us the opportunity to probe high-energy physics from observing the spacetime fluctuations generated during inflation imprinted on the cosmic microwave background. In other words, it is a method to investigate physics on energy scales that cannot be reached by terrestrial accelerators by means of precise observations of the universe. In this paper, we focus on the case where the GUT scale is close to the energy scale of inflation, and calculate three point function of inflaton by exchanging the Higgs boson in GUT at tree level. The results are found to be consistent with the current observed restrictions on non-Gaussianity without a drastic fine tuning of parameters, and it might be possible to detect the signature of the Higgs boson in GUT by 21cm spectrum, future LSS and future CMB depending on our model parameters.
