This paper presents a method for reconstructing the curvaton potential from a scale-dependent non-Gaussianity parameter, with an example of a weakly self-interacting curvaton model that satisfies observational constraints and explains CMB dipolar modulation. The approach can be extended to reconstruct the curvaton potential from the g(NL) parameter.
In this paper, we propose a method to reconstruct the curvaton potential from a scale-dependent non-Gaussianity parameter f(NL). We exemplify our method, devising a weakly self-interacting curvaton model that produces a scale-dependent f(NL) that crosses zero twice and is bounded from below and above. We identify the higher value of crossing with the cosmic microwave background (CMB) pivot scale, making the lower value fall within important structure formation scales. In addition, our curvaton model satisfies the observational constraints and leads to a k-dependent f(NL) that can explain the CMB dipolar modulation. Our procedure can be straightforwardly extended to reconstruct the curvaton potential instead from the g(NL) parameter.
