Large-scale anomalies from primordial dissipation
  We analyze an inflationary model in which part of the power in density
perturbations arises due to particle production. The amount of particle
production is modulated by an auxiliary field. Given an initial gradient for
the auxiliary field, this model produces a hemispherical power asymmetry and a
suppression of power at low multipoles similar to those observed by WMAP and
Planck in the CMB temperature. It also predicts an additive contribution to
$\delta T$ with support only at very small $l$ that is aligned with the
direction of the power asymmetry and has a definite sign, as well as small
oscillations in the power spectrum at all $l$.
