Encyclopaedia Inflationaris
  The current flow of high accuracy astrophysical data, among which are the
Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) measurements by the Planck satellite, offers
an unprecedented opportunity to constrain the inflationary theory. This is
however a challenging project given the size of the inflationary landscape
which contains hundreds of different scenarios. Given that there is currently
no observational evidence for primordial non-Gaussianities, isocurvature
perturbations or any other non-minimal extension of the inflationary paradigm,
a reasonable approach is to consider the simplest models first, namely the
slow-roll single field models with minimal kinetic terms. This still leaves us
with a very populated landscape, the exploration of which requires new and
efficient strategies. It has been customary to tackle this problem by means of
approximate model independent methods while a more ambitious alternative is to
study the inflationary scenarios one by one. We have developed the new publicly
available runtime library ASPIC to implement this last approach. The ASPIC code
provides all routines needed to quickly derive reheating consistent observable
predictions within this class of scenarios. ASPIC has been designed as an
evolutive code which presently supports 74 different models, a number that may
be compared with three or four representing the present state of the art. In
this paper, for each of the ASPIC models, we present and collect new results in
a systematic manner, thereby constituting the first Encyclopaedia
Inflationaris. Finally, we discuss how this procedure and ASPIC could be used
to determine the best model of inflation by means of Bayesian inference.
