Inflation, Large Scale Structure and Particle Physics

Abstract

We review experimental and theoretical developments in inflation and its application to structure formation, including the curvaton idea. We then discuss a particle physics model of supersymmetric hybrid inflation at the intermediate scale in which the Higgs scalar field is responsible for large scale structure, and show how such a theory is completely natural in the framework extra dimensions with an intermediate string scale.
