Supergravity, $\alpha$-attractors and primordial non-Gaussianity
  We compute in detail how deviations from Einstein gravity at the inflation
energy scale could appear as non-Gaussian features in the sky. To illustrate
this we use multi-field $\alpha-$attractor models in the framework of
supergravity to realise inflation. We find no obvious obstacle for having
choices of model's parameters that generate non-Gaussian features of the
equilateral and local type at the $\cal O$(1) level in the $f_{\rm NL}$
non-Gaussianity parameter, thus being potentially detectable in future
cosmological surveys. This non-Gaussianity has its origin in either the
non-canonical kinetic term (which, in turn, is an immediate consequence of
assuming an hyperbolic geometry of the moduli space), the interactions of the
fields in the potential or the $\alpha-$parameter, or a combination of these
three. This opens up the exciting possibility of constraining the law of
gravity at energy scales close to the Planck one.
