Affleck-Dine inflation
  The Affleck-Dine mechanism in its simplest form provides baryogenesis from
the out-of-equilibrium evolution of a complex scalar field with a simple
renormalizable potential. We show that such a model, supplemented by nonminimal
coupling to gravity, can also provide inflation, consistent with Planck
constraints, simultaneously with the generation of the baryon asymmetry. The
predictions of the model include significant tensor-to-scalar ratio and
possibly baryon isocurvature fluctuations. The reheating temperature is
calculable, making the model fully predictive. We require color triplet scalars
for reheating and transfering the primordial baryon asymmetry to quarks; these
could be observable at colliders. They can also be probed at higher scales by
searches for quark compositeness in dijet angular distributions, and
flavor-changing neutral current effects.
