Abstract

Primordial non-Gaussianity generated in an inflationary model where inflation\nis preceded by a radiation era is discussed. It is shown that both bispectrum\nand trispectrum non-Gaussianities are enhanced due to the presence of\npre-inflationary radiation era. One distinguishing feature of such a scenario\nis that the trispectrum non-Gaussianity is larger than the bispectrum one.\n
