Modulated reheating by curvaton
  There might be a light scalar field during inflation which is not responsible
for the accelerating inflationary expansion. Then, its quantum fluctuation is
stretched during inflation. This scalar field could be a curvaton, if it decays
at a late time. In addition, if the inflaton decay rate depends on the light
scalar field expectation value by interactions between them, density
perturbations could be generated by the quantum fluctuation of the light field
when the inflaton decays. This is modulated reheating mechanism. We study
curvature perturbation in models where a light scalar field does not only play
a role of curvaton but also induce modulated reheating at the inflaton decay.
We calculate the non-linearity parameters as well as the scalar spectral index
and the tensor-to-scalar ratio. We find that there is a parameter region where
non-linearity parameters are also significantly enhanced by the cancellation
between the modulated effect and the curvaton contribution. For the simple
quadratic potential model of both inflaton and curvaton, both tensor-to-scalar
ratio and nonlinearity parameters could be simultaneously large.
