* ABSTRACT | |||||||
After reviewing the Effective Field Theory (EFT) for inflation, I will explain how within this context one can construct a class of operators that capture the effectrs of heavy (UV) fields on the low energy (IR) dynamics of the scalar perturbations. We will then see how in presense of these operators, the observables related to correlation functions of perturbations are directly related to the scale of UV physics. I will also comment on the 3-point functions that result from this class of EFT\\\'s |
