Disentangling the primordial nature of stochastic gravitational wave backgrounds with CMB spectral distortions
Bryce Cyr, Thomas Kite, Jens Chluba +5
The recent detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) at nanohertz frequencies by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) has sparked a flurry of interest. Beyond the stand…
Primordial black holes from single-field inflation: a fine-tuning audit
Philippa S. Cole, Andrew D. Gow, Christian T. Byrnes +1
All single-field inflationary models invoke varying degrees of tuning in order to account for cosmological observations. Mechanisms that generate primordial black holes (PBHs) from…
Galaxy number-count dipole and superhorizon fluctuations
Guillem Domènech, Roya Mohayaee, Subodh P. Patil +1
In view of the growing tension between the dipole anisotropy of number counts of cosmologically distant sources and of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), we investigate the num…
Smooth vs instant inflationary transitions: steepest growth re-examined and primordial black holes
Philippa S. Cole, Andrew D. Gow, Christian T. Byrnes +1
Primordial black holes (PBHs) can be produced by a range of mechanisms in the early universe. A particular formation channel that connects PBHs with inflationary phenomenology invo…
Bridging the Gap: Spectral Distortions meet Gravitational Waves
Thomas Kite
This talk has the goal of introducing two upcoming exciting avenues of discovery in precision Cosmology: spectral distortions (SDs) and gravitational waves (GWs). The former signal…
Primordial tensor bispectra in -CMB cross-correlations
Giorgio Orlando, P. Daniel Meerburg, Subodh P. Patil
Cross-correlations between Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature and polarization anisotropies and -spectral distortions have been considered to measure (squeezed) primo…
