Figure 2.4: The CMBTT angular power spectra corresponding to the best fit values of the<br />

inflationary models for the WMAP seven-year data without and with the step. The solid<br />

blue and the solid red curves correspond to the quadratic potential without and with the<br />

step, respectively. The dashed green curve corresponds to the best fit small field model<br />

with the step. We find that the results for the tachyon model behave in exactly the same<br />

fashion. The black dots with error bars denote the WMAP seven-year data. It is visually<br />

evident that, with the introduction of the step, the models lead to a better fit to the data<br />

near the multipole moments ofl = 22 and 40.<br />
