Vacuum-normalized Newtonian spectrum in stiff contraction
ID: vacuum-normalized-newtonian-spectrum-in-stiff-contraction
The momentum constraint relates the incoming scalar mode to the Newtonian-potential Hankel modes in stiff contraction. Large-argument Hankel asymptotics give . The small-argument behavior then gives the displayed spectrum. Its dimensional power is and its power per logarithmic interval is proportional to . These are Newtonian-potential spectra; a curvature-perturbation spectrum need not have the same exponent.
