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 کاملDestriping CMB temperature and polarization maps
We study destriping as a map-making method for temperature-and-polarization data for cosmic microwave background observations. We present a particular implementation of destriping and study the residual error in output maps, using simulated data corresponding to the 70 GHz channel of the Planck satellite, but assuming idealized detector and beam properties. The relevant residual map is the diff...
متن کاملCMB Temperature and Polarization Anisotropy Fundamentals
The tremendous experimental progress in cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization anisotropy studies over the last few years has helped establish a standard paradigm for cosmology at intermediate epochs and has simultaneously raised questions regarding the physical processes at the two opposite ends of time. What is the physics behind the source of structure in the universe...
متن کاملLensing reconstruction with CMB temperature and polarization
Weak gravitational lensing by an intervening large-scale structure induces a distinct signature in the cosmic microwave background ~CMB! that can be used to reconstruct the weak-lensing displacement map. Estimators for individual Fourier modes of this map can be combined to produce an estimator for the lensing-potential power spectrum. The naive estimator for this quantity will be biased upward...
