From CFT Spectra to CMB Multipoles in Quantum Gravity Cosmology

چکیده
We study the inflation process of universe based on the renormalizable quantum gravity formulated as a conformal field theory (CFT). We show that the power-law CFT spectrum approaches to that of the Harrison-Zel’dovich-Peebles type as the amplitude of gravitational potential gradually reduces during the inflation. The non-Gaussanity parameter is preserved within order of unity due to the diffeomorphism invariance. Sharp fall-off of the angular power spectrum of cosmic microwave background (CMB) at large scale is understood as a consequence of the existence of dynamical scale of the quantum gravity ΛQG(≃ 1017)GeV. The angular power spectra are computed and compared with the WMAP5 and ACBAR data with a quality of χ2/dof ≃ 1.1.

Inflationary scenario based on a renormalizable model of conformal gravity is proposed and primordial spectrum is derived. The sharp fall off of the angular power spectra at low multipoles in the COBE and WMAP observations are explained by a dynamical scale of quantum gravity. At this scale, the universe would make a sharp transition from the quantum spacetime with conformal invariance to the c...
متن کاملCMB Anisotropies Reveal Quantized Gravity
A novel primordial spectrum with a dynamical scale of quantum gravity origin is proposed to explain the sharp fall off of the angular power spectra at low multipoles in the COBE and WMAP observations. The spectrum is derived from quantum fluctuations of the scalar curvature in a renormalizable model of induced gravity. This model describes the very early universe by the conformal field fluctuat...
متن کاملPlanck 2015 results - XI. CMB power spectra, likelihoods, and robustness of parameters
This paper presents the Planck 2015 likelihoods, statistical descriptions of the 2-point correlation functions of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization fluctuations that account for relevant uncertainties both instrumental and astrophysical in nature. They are based on the same hybrid approach used for the previous release, i.e., a pixel-based likelihood at low mult...
متن کاملFull covariance of CMB and lensing reconstruction power spectra
CMB and lensing reconstruction power spectra are powerful probes of cosmology. However they are correlated, since the CMB power spectra are lensed and the lensing reconstruction is constructed using CMB multipoles. We perform a full analysis of the autoand cross-covariances, including polarization power spectra and minimum variance lensing estimators, and compare with simulations of idealized f...
متن کاملSpace-time Evolution and CMB Anisotropies from Quantum Gravity
We propose an evolutional scenario of the universe which starts from quantum states with conformal invariance, passing through the inflationary era, and then makes transition to the conventional Einstein spacetime. The space-time dynamics is derived from the renormalizable higherderivative quantum gravity on the basis of a conformal gravity in four dimensions. Based on the linear perturbation t...
