Gravitational time delay effects on cosmic microwave background anisotropies
We study the effect of gravitational time delay on the power spectra and bispectra of the cosmic microwave background ~CMB! temperature and polarization anisotropies. The time delay effect modulates the spatial surface at recombination on which temperature anisotropies are observed, typically by ;1 Mpc. While this is a relatively large shift, its observable effects in the temperature and polari...
متن کاملCosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies
■ Abstract Cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies have and will continue to revolutionize our understanding of cosmology. The recent discovery of the previously predicted acoustic peaks in the power spectrum has established a working cosmological model: a critical density universe consisting of mainly dark matter and dark energy, which formed its structure through gravitatio...
متن کاملCosmic Microwave Background anisotropies from second order gravitational perturbations
This paper presents a complete analysis of the effects of second order gravitational perturbations on Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies, taking explicitly into account scalar, vector and tensor modes. We also consider the second order perturbations of the metric itself obtaining them, for a universe dominated by a collision-less fluid, in the Poisson gauge, by transforming the known resu...
متن کاملAnisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background
— We review the present status of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy observations and discuss the main related astrophysical issues, instrumental effects and data analysis techniques. We summarise the balloon-borne and ground-based experiments that, after COBE-DMR, yielded detection or significant upper limits to CMB fluctuations. A comparison of subsets of combined data indicates tha...
متن کاملGravitational Lensing Effect on Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies: a Power Spectrum Approach
The effect of gravitational lensing on cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies is investigated using the power spectrum approach. The lensing effect can be calculated in any cosmological model by specifying the evolution of gravitational potential. Previous work on this subject is generalized to a non-flat universe and to a nonlinear evolution regime. Gravitational lensing cannot change ...
