CMBPol Mission Concept Study: Probing Inflation with CMB Polarization
Daniel Baumann, Mark G. Jackson, Peter Adshead +56
We summarize the utility of precise cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization measurements as probes of the physics of inflation. We focus on the prospects for using CMB measu…
Dark Matter, Dark Energy and the solution of the strong CP problem
Roberto Mainini, Loris Colombo, Silvio Bonometto
The strong CP problem was solved by Peccei & Quinn by introducing axions, a viable candidate for Dark Matter (DM). Here the PQ approach is modified so to yield also Dark Energy (DE…
The European Low Frequency Survey
Aniello Mennella, Kam Arnold, Susanna Azzoni +18
In this paper we present the European Low Frequency Survey (ELFS), a project that will enable foregrounds-free measurements of primordial -mode polarization to a level 10…
Dark Matter and Dark Energy from a single scalar field
Roberto Mainini, Loris Colombo, Silvio A. Bonometto
The strong CP problem was solved by Peccei & Quinn by introducing axions, which are a viable candidate for DM. Here the PQ approach is modified so to yield also Dark Energy (DE), w…
Study of the Experimental Probe of Inflationary Cosmology (EPIC)-Intemediate Mission for NASA's Einstein Inflation Probe
James Bock, Abdullah Aljabri, Alex Amblard +35
Measurements of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy have served as the best experimental probe of the early universe to date. The inflationary paradigm, inspired in part b…
Likelihood methods for CMB experiments
Martina Gerbino, Massimiliano Lattanzi, Marina Migliaccio +6
A great deal of experimental effort is currently being devoted to the precise measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) sky in temperature and polarisation. Satellites,…
