Probing inflationary models with gravitational waves — •Alexander Schneider, Gudrid Moortgart-Pick, and Tom Krokotsch — University of Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany

The horizon problem suggests a period of rapid expansion commonly referred to as Inflation.

If Inflation occurred, it did so before the decoupling of the CMB and as such may be the only method of directly detecting its effects is through the gravitational wave background it created.

The topic of this talk is discussing the gravitational wave spectra of Inflation and what it can tell us about the early universe.
