Polarization Signal of Distant Clusters and Reconstruction of Primordial Potential Fluctuations
We examine the polarization signal of the cosmic microwave background radiation associated with distant clusters. The polarization is induced by the Thomson scattering of microwave photons with ionized gas of clusters and contains information of quadrupole temperature anisotropies observed at the clusters. The three-dimensional map of the signal are expressed in terms of the spin-weighted harmo...
متن کاملLensing reconstruction of primordial cosmic microwave background polarization
We discuss the possibility to directly reconstruct the cosmic microwave background ~CMB! polarization field at the last scattering surface by accounting for modifications imposed by the gravitational lensing effect. The suggested method requires a tracer field of the large scale structure lensing potentials that deflected propagating CMB photons from the last scattering surface. This required i...
متن کاملDistant Galaxy Clusters Identified from Optical Background Fluctuations
We present the first high redshift (0.3 < z < 1.1) galaxy clusters found by systematically identifying optical low surface brightness fluctuations in the background sky. Using spectra obtained with the Keck telescope and I-band images from the Palomar 1.5m telescope, we conclude that at least eight of the ten candidates examined are high redshift galaxy clusters. The identification of such clus...
متن کاملClassicality of primordial fluctuations and Primordial Black Holes
The production of Primordial Black Holes (PBH) from inflationary perturbations provides a physical process where the effective classicality of the fluctuations does not hold for certain scales. For adiabatic perturbations produced during inflation, this range of scales corresponds to PBH with masses M ≪ 1015 g. For PBH with masses M ∼ MH(te), the horizon mass at the end of inflation, the genera...
