Considerations in optimizing CMB polarization experiments to constrain inflationary physics
We quantify the limiting factors in optimizing current-technology cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiments to learn about inflationary physics. We consider space-based, balloon-borne and ground-based experiments. We find that foreground contamination and residuals from foreground subtraction are ultimately the limiting factors in detecting a primordial gravity wave signal. For...
متن کاملOptimizing CMB polarization experiments to constrain inflationary physics
We quantify how to optimize current-technology cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiments in order to learn about inflationary physics. We consider space-based, balloon-borne and ground-based experiments. We find that foreground contamination and residuals from foreground subtraction are ultimately the limiting factors in detecting a primordial gravity wave signal. For full-sky ...
متن کاملPrecision of inflationary predictions and recent CMB anisotropy data
Inflationary predictions of the cosmic microwave background anisotropy are often based on the slow-roll approximation. We study the precision of these predictions and compare them with the recent data from BOOMERanG and MAXIMA-1.
متن کاملSub-degree CMB anisotropies from inflationary bubbles
It is well known that processes of first order phase transitions may have occurred in the inflationary era. If one or more occurred well before the end of inflation, the nucleated bubbles are stretched to large scales and the primordial power spectrum contains a scale dependent non-Gaussian component provided by the remnants of the bubbles. We predict the anisotropies in the cosmic microwave ba...
متن کاملCosmology in the Next Millennium: Combining MAP and SDSS Data to Constrain Inflationary Models
The existence of primordial adiabatic Gaussian random-phase density fluctuations is a generic prediction of inflation. The properties of these fluctuations are completely specified by their power spectrum AS(k). The basic cosmological parameters and the primordial power spectrum together completely specify predictions for the cosmic microwave background radiation anisotropy and large scale stru...
