Emergent universe scenario and the low CMB multipoles

Published 2013-12-24, updated 2015-04-20Version 2

In this work we study superinflation in the context of the emergent universe (EU) scenario. The existence of a superinflating phase before the onset of slow-roll inflation arises in any emergent universe model. We found that the superinflationary period in the EU scenario produces a suppression of the CMB anisotropies at large scale which could be responsible for the observed lack of power at large angular scales of the CMB.

Comments: 20 pages, 4 figures, typos corrected, some improvements in sections III and V, and comments added in conclusions. New appendix, references added. Accepted for publication in Phys.Rev.D
