LiteBIRD Mission Overview after Mission Reformation
LiteBIRD Collaboration, K. Aizawa, H. Akamatsu +172
LiteBIRD is a JAXA-led space mission designed to produce all-sky microwave polarization maps. Its primary science goal is to test representative inflationary models by measuring th…
Cosmic Birefringence from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope Data Release 6
P. Diego-Palazuelos, E. Komatsu
The polarized light of the cosmic microwave background is sensitive to new physics that violates parity symmetry. For example, the interaction of photons with the fields of elusive…
LiteBIRD Science Goals and Forecasts: constraining isotropic cosmic birefringence
E. de la Hoz, P. Diego-Palazuelos, J. Errard +112
Cosmic birefringence (CB) is the rotation of the photons' linear polarisation plane during propagation. Such an effect is a tracer of parity-violating extensions of standard electr…
LiteBIRD Science Goals and Forecasts. A Case Study of the Origin of Primordial Gravitational Waves using Large-Scale CMB Polarization
P. Campeti, E. Komatsu, C. Baccigalupi +107
We study the possibility of using the satellite -mode survey to constrain models of inflation producing specific features in CMB angular power spectra. We explore a p…
