■ Abstract In forthcoming years, connections between cosmology and particle physics will become increasingly important with the advent of a new generation of cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments. Here, we review a number of these links. Our primary focus is on new CMB tests of inflation. We explain how the inflationary predictions for the geometry of the Universe and primordial density...

In this article, we do a thorough investigation of the competency forthcoming Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and Galaxy surveys in probing features primordial power spectrum. Primordial are specific model-dependent corrections on top standard power-law inflationary spectrum; functional form being given by different scenarios. Signature any significant departure from feature-less spectrum wil...

We study the effect of a void network on the CMB anisotropy in the Einstein-de Sitter background using Thompson & Vishniac’s model. We consider comprehensively the Sacks-Wolfe effect, the Rees-Sciama effect and the gravitational lensing effect. Our analysis includes the model of primordial voids existing at recombination, which is realized in some inflationary models associated with a first-ord...

South Pole Station offers a unique combination of high, dry, stable conditions and welldeveloped support facilities. Over the past 20 years, a sequence of increasingly sophisticated CMB experiments at Pole have built on the experience of early pioneering efforts, producing a number of landmark contributions to the field. Telescopes at the South Pole were among the first to make repeated detecti...

The past decade has been the most exciting time in cosmology in these respects: 1. The discovery of Dark Energy, and an estimate of the composition of the universe. 2. Advances in the understanding of the composition of dark matter. 3. The discovery that the universe is flat. The following advances have occured in Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) cosmology: 1. A systematic characterization of ...

The quadrupole power of cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies seen in the WMAP data is puzzlingly low. In this paper we demonstrate that Minimum Variance Optimization (MVO), a technique used by many authors (including the WMAP science team) to separate the CMB from contaminating foregrounds, has the effect of forcing the extracted CMB map to have zero statistical correlatio...

Gravity is the only force that cannot be explained by Standard Model (SM), current best theory describing all known fundamental particles and their forces. Here we reveal gravitational can precisely given mass of objects microwave background (CMB) radiation. Moreover, using same strategy a relation which CMB also define fine-structure constant α.
