Constraining Fundamental Physics with the Cosmic Microwave Background
The temperature anisotropies and polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation provide a window back to the physics of the early universe. They encode the nature of the initial fluctuations and so can reveal much about the physical mechanism that led to their generation. In this contribution we review what we have learnt so far about early-universe physics from CMB observation...
متن کاملConstraining fundamental constants of physics with quasar absorption line systems
We summarize the attempts by our group and others to derive constraints on variations of fundamental constants over cosmic time using quasar absorption lines. Most upper limits reside in the range 0.5−1.5×10−5 at the 3σ level over a redshift range of approximately 0.5 − 2.5 for the fine-structure constant, α, the proton-to-electron mass ratio, μ and a combination of the proton gyromagnetic fact...
متن کاملConstraining fundamental stellar parameters using seismology
We apply the Levenberg-Marquardt minimization algorithm to seismic and classical observables of the αCen binary system in order to derive the fundamental parameters of αCenA+B, and to analyze the dependence of these parameters on the chosen observables, on their uncertainty, and on the physics used in stellar modelling. The seismological data are those by Bouchy & Carrier (2002) for αCen A, and...
متن کاملConstraining Electroweak Physics
The most fundamental observable related to the weak interaction is the muon lifetime, τμ. With the electromagnetic two-loop contribution known1, τμ can be used unambiguously to extract the Fermi constant, GF = 1.16637(1)× 10 −5 GeV, where the uncertainty is completely dominated by experiment. Adding the fine structure constant, α, one can obtain two relations between the intermediate gauge boso...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Modeling of Capsule Implosions in OMEGA Tetrahedral Hohlraums
90 LLE Review, Volume 82 Introduction To achieve ignition and gain in inertial confinement fusion (ICF), a spherical target must be compressed with a highly uniform drive mechanism.1–3 Perturbations in the drive can lead to a distorted fuel core as well as hydrodynamic instabilities, which cause the colder ablator material to mix with the fuel in the central hot spot, effectively quenching the ...
