CMB Temperature Polarization Correlation and Primordial Gravitational Waves

A. G. Polnarev, N. J. Miller, B. G. Keating

We examine the use of the CMB's TE cross correlation power spectrum as a complementary test to detect primordial gravitational waves (PGWs). The first method used is based on the d…
