CMB各向异性图形的对称性和反对称性

Symmetry and anti-symmetry of the CMB anisotropy pattern

Jaiseung Kim, Pavel Naselsky, Martin Hansen

摘要:

给定一个任意函数,我们可以在一定的运算下构造对称函数和反对称函数。由于我们宇宙的统计各向同性和均匀性一直是现代宇宙学的基本假设,我们不期望我们宇宙中有任何特殊的对称性或反对称性。除了我们宇宙的基本性质之外,我们还可以通过将CMB数据的不寻常对称性和反对称性与已知的污染相匹配来计算我们的污染并提高CMB数据产品的质量。注意到这一点,我们研究了CMB各向异性图案的对称性和反对称性,这提供了最深的调查。如果我们让操作是一个坐标反演,对称和反对称函数分别有偶和奇宇称。对最近CMB数据宇称的研究显示了大尺度的奇宇称偏好,这在统计各向同性和均匀宇宙中是不可能的。我们已经调查了WMAP系统学与异常的关联,但没有发现一个明确的非宇宙学原因。此外,我们还分别研究了偶、奇多极子数据的相位,发现它们的行为是不同的。注意到奇宇称偏好反常,我们分别对偶、奇多极数据拟合了一个宇宙学模型,发现了明显的参数张力。除了与奇偶性明显相关的异常外,CMB数据中还异常缺乏大尺度相关性。注意到功率谱和相关性之间的等价性,我们已经研究了缺乏大角度相关性和角功率谱的奇宇称偏好之间的关联。从我们的分析中,我们发现,奇宇称偏好在低多极,事实上,现象上相同的缺乏大角度的相关。

英文摘要:

Given an arbitrary function, we may construct symmetric and antisymmetric functions under a certain operation. Since statistical isotropy and homogeneity of our Universe has been a fundamental assumption of modern cosmology, we do not expect any particular symmetry or antisymmetry in our Universe. Besides fundamental properties of our Universe, we may also figure our contamination and improve the quality of the CMB data products, by matching the unusual symmetries and antisymmetries of the CMB data with known contaminantions. Noting this, we have investigated the symmetry and antisymmetry of CMB anisotropy pattern, which provides the deepest survey. If we let the operation to be a coordinate inversion, the symmetric and antisymmetric functions have even and odd-parity respectively. The investigation on the parity of the recent CMB data shows a large-scale odd-parity preference, which is very unlikely in the statistical isotropic and homogeneous Universe. We have investigated the association of the WMAP systematics with the anomaly, but not found a definite non-cosmological cause. Additionally, we have investigated the phase of even and odd multipole data respectively, and found the behavior distinct from each other. Noting the odd-parity preference anomaly, we have fitted a cosmological model respectively to even and odd multipole data, and found significant parametric tension. Besides anomalies explicitly associated with parity, there are anomalous lack of large-scale correlation in CMB data. Noting the equivalence between the power spectrum and the correlation, we have investigated the association between the lack of large-angle correlation and the odd-parity preference of the angular power spectrum. From our analysis, we find that the odd-parity preference at low multipoles is, in fact, phenomenologically identical with the lack of large-angle correlation.
