Observing the Evolution of the Universe

James Aguirre, Alexandre Amblard, Amjad Ashoorioon +172

How did the universe evolve? The fine angular scale (l>1000) temperature and polarization anisotropies in the CMB are a Rosetta stone for understanding the evolution of the univers…

The Origin of the Universe as Revealed Through the Polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background

S. Dodelson, R. Easther, S. Hanany +61

Modern cosmology has sharpened questions posed for millennia about the origin of our cosmic habitat. The age-old questions have been transformed into two pressing issues primed for…

CMBPol Mission Concept Study: A Mission to Map our Origins

Daniel Baumann, Asantha Cooray, Scott Dodelson +7

Quantum mechanical metric fluctuations during an early inflationary phase of the universe leave a characteristic imprint in the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB…

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…

Five-Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Data Processing, Sky Maps, and Basic Results

G. Hinshaw, J. L. Weiland, R. S. Hill +18

We present new full-sky temperature and polarization maps in five frequency bands from 23 to 94 GHz, based on data from the first five years of the WMAP sky survey. The five-year m…

Five-Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Angular Power Spectra

M. R. Nolta, J. Dunkley, R. S. Hill +17

We present the temperature and polarization angular power spectra of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) derived from the first 5 years of WMAP data. The 5-year temperature (TT)…
