چکیده
Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies have been recognized as one of the most important observational quantities to understand the early stage of our universe. In this paper, recent development of theoretical works on CMB anisotropies are summarized and it is shown that temperature uctuations of CMB contain rich information, i.e., cosmological parameters, geometry of the universe, initial condition of the density perturbations and more.

The Standard Cosmological Model and CMB Anisotropies
This is a course on cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies in the standard cosmological model, designed for beginning graduate students and advanced undergraduates. “Standard cosmological model” in this context means a Universe dominated by some form of cold dark matter (CDM) with adiabatic perturbations generated at some initial epoch, e.g., Inflation, and left to evolve under gravity ...
متن کاملConstraints on the Evolution of the Primordial Magnetic Field from the Small-Scale Cosmic Microwave Background Angular Anisotropy
Recent observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have extended the measured power spectrum to higher multipoles l &1000, and there appears to be possible evidence for excess power on small angular scales. The primordial magnetic field (PMF) can strongly affect the CMB power spectrum and the formation of large scale structure. In this paper, we calculate the CMB temperature anisotrop...
متن کاملMicrowave Background Anisotropies from Alfvén waves
We investigate microwave background anisotropies in the presence of primordial magnetic fields. We show that a homogeneous field with fixed direction can amplify vector perturbations. We calculate the correlations of δT/T explicitly and show that a large scale coherent field induces correlations between al−1,m and al+1,m. We discuss constraints on the amplitude and spectrum of a primordial magn...
متن کاملPrimordial magnetic field constrained from CMB anisotropies,and its generation and evolution before, during and after the BBN
The primordial magnetic field (PMF) can strongly affect the cosmic microwave background (CMB) power spectrum and the formation of large scale structure. In this presentation, we calculate the CMB temperature anisotropies generated by including a power-law magnetic field at the photon last scattering surface (PLSS). We then deduce an upper limit on the primordial magnetic field based upon our th...
متن کاملTopological Defect Models of Structure Formation after the Cobe Discovery of Cmb Anisotropies
The COBE satellite has discovered anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) consistent with a scale invariant spectrum of density perturbations1). As reviewed in this lecture, topological defect models of structure formation generically produce such a spectrum. We give a summary of the cosmic string and global texture models, focusing on distinct observational signatures in large-sc...
