The first data-driven bounds on the quantum decoherence of inflationary gravitational waves

Jessie de Kruijf, Giacomo Galloni, Nicola Bartolo

The (large-scale) structures we observe in the Universe are classical, but within the inflationary scenario they do originate from quantum fluctuations. This leads to the question:…

Quantum signatures and decoherence during inflation from deep subhorizon perturbations

Francescopaolo Lopez, Nicola Bartolo

In order to shed light on the quantum-to-classical transition of the primordial perturbations in single field inflation, we investigate the decoherence and associated quantum corre…

Observed galaxy number counts on the lightcone up to third order

Lorenzo Gervani, Daniele Bertacca, Nicola Bartolo

In this work we provide a detailed derivation of the observed galaxy number over-density obtained by computing cosmological perturbations up to third order in redshift space and on…

Cross-Correlating the Universe: The Gravitational Wave Background and Large-Scale Structure

Federico Semenzato, J. Andrew Casey-Clyde, Chiara M. F. Mingarelli +4

The nature of the gravitational wave background (GWB) is a key question in modern astrophysics and cosmology, with significant implications for understanding the structure and evol…

Searching for blue in the dark

Jessie de Kruijf, Eleonora Vanzan, Kimberly K. Boddy +2

The primordial power spectrum of curvature perturbations has been well-measured on large scales but remains fairly unconstrained at smaller scales, where significant deviations fro…

The effect of quantum decoherence on inflationary gravitational waves

Jessie de Kruijf, Nicola Bartolo

The theory of inflation provides a mechanism to explain the structures we observe today in the Universe, starting from quantum-mechanically generated fluctuations. However, this le…

Dark ages, a window on the dark sector. Hunting for ultra-light axions

Eleonora Vanzan, Alvise Raccanelli, Nicola Bartolo

Measurements of 21cm intensity mapping (IM) during the dark ages can potentially provide us with an unprecedented window on high redshifts and small scales. One of the main advanta…
