Polarization Predictions for Inflationary CMB Power Spectrum Features
V Miranda, Wayne Hu, Cora Dvorkin
We conduct a model-independent analysis of temporal features during inflation in the large-scale CMB temperature power spectrum allowing for the possibility of non-negligible tenso…
Super-Sample Signal
Yin Li, Wayne Hu, Masahiro Takada
When extracting cosmological information from power spectrum measurements, we must consider the impact of super-sample density fluctuations whose wavelengths are larger than the su…
Generalized Slow Roll for Tensors
Wayne Hu
The recent BICEP2 detection of degree scale CMB B-mode polarization, coupled with a deficit of observed power in large angle temperature anisotropy, suggest that the slow-roll para…
Neutrinos help reconcile Planck measurements with both Early and Local Universe
Cora Dvorkin, Mark Wyman, Douglas H. Rudd +1
In light of the recent BICEP2 B-mode polarization detection, which implies a large inflationary tensor-to-scalar ratio r_{0.05}=0.2^{+0.07}_{-0.05}, we re-examine the evidence for…
Steps to Reconcile Inflationary Tensor and Scalar Spectra
V Miranda, Wayne Hu, Peter Adshead
The recent BICEP2 B-mode polarization determination of an inflationary tensor-scalar ratio is in tension with simple scale-free models of inflation due to a…
Bounds on non-adiabatic evolution in single-field inflation
Peter Adshead, Wayne Hu
We examine the regime of validity of -point spectra predictions of single field inflation models that invoke transient periods of non-adiabatic evolution. Such models generate o…
