宇宙磁场的内禀双谱

Intrinsic Bispectra of Cosmic Magnetic Fields

Iain A. Brown

摘要:

来自普朗克实验和其他实验的即将到来的数据集能够以比目前更高的精度探测CMB非高斯性,并有可能打开一扇了解早期宇宙物理学的新窗口。然而,信号不一定是暴胀源,可能的污染物应详细检查。早期宇宙磁场就是其中之一,它可以由各种模型产生,包括在暴胀阶段、相变或由宇宙缺陷产生。如果这样的场在早期宇宙中已经扩展,它们就提供了CMB非高斯性的自然来源。CMB角双谱的知识需要完整的傅里叶空间(或“本征”)双谱。在本文中,我详细考虑了内禀双谱的早期宇宙磁场的幂律磁功率谱的范围。

英文摘要:

Forthcoming datasets from the Planck experiment and others are in a position to probe the CMB non-Gaussianity with higher accuracy than has yet been possible and potentially open a new window into the physics of the very early universe. However, a signal need not necessarily be inflationary in origin, and possible contaminants should be examined in detail. One such is provided by early universe magnetic fields, which can be produced by a variety of models including during an inflationary phase, at phase transitions, or seeded by cosmic defects. Should such fields have been extent in the early universe they provide a natural source of CMB non-Gaussianity. Knowledge of the CMB angular bispectrum requires the complete Fourier-space (or "intrinsic") bispectrum. In this paper I consider in detail the intrinsic bispectra of an early-universe magnetic field for a range of power-law magnetic power spectra.
