The Cosmic Microwave Background And Pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone Bosons: Searching For Lorentz Violations In The Cosmos

David Leon, Jonathan Kaufman, Brian Keating +1

One of the most powerful probes of new physics is the polarized Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). The detection of a nonzero polarization angle rotation between the CMB surface of…

BICEP2 / Keck Array VII: Matrix based E/B Separation applied to BICEP2 and the Keck Array

Keck Array, BICEP2 Collaborations, : +63

A linear polarization field on the sphere can be uniquely decomposed into an E-mode and a B-mode component. These two components are analytically defined in terms of spin-2 spheric…

Using the Crab Nebula as a high precision calibrator for Cosmic Microwave Background polarimeters

Jonathan Kaufman, Brian Keating, David Leon

The polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) provides a plethora of information about the early universe. Most notably, gravitational waves from the Inflationary epoch…
