5 Mul.- field infla.on On super- Hubble scales, along a turn in the infla.onary trajectory, there is a coupling between the adiaba%c and entropy modes and the la:er can source the former. Curiously, some.mes ignored; see eg. account in Avgous.dis, Cremonini, Davis, Ribeiro, KT & Watson 11 Hubble radius crossing Gordon et al, 2000 instantaneous entropy (isocurvature) perturba.on instantaneous adiaba.c (curvature) perturba.on

20 Very fast turns: par.cle produc.on working hypothesis or wishful thinking χ * Just aaer the turn without par.cle produc.on: damped oscilla.ons in the direc.on propor.onal to the slow- roll with par.cle produc.on: * kine.c energy of the oscilla.ons radiated away as par.cles φ hence smoothing of the trajectory and even less features in the power spectrum

21 It is conceivable that a simple pa:ern of predic%ons consistent with observa%ons result from intricate workings of the fundamental theory: fast turns decouple Ø Several examples show that the effects of sub- horizon fast turns decouple as k 2 (at least). Ø Par.cle produc.on makes turning infla.onary trajectories smoother, which suppresses observable features.
