摘要:

我们开发了一个新的,有效的代码求解二阶爱因斯坦-玻尔兹曼方程,并使用它来估计所产生的密度扰动的非线性演化的内在CMB非高斯。完整的计算包括来自重组的贡献和来自沿着视线整合的项的不太容易处理的贡献。我们调查的偏见,这种内在的双谱意味着搜索原始的非高斯。我们发现,包含或省略某些视线条款可以产生很大的影响。当考虑除透镜效应和时间延迟外的所有物理效应时,我们发现局域型f_nl将有f_nl ~ 0.5的偏差,低于普朗克卫星的预期灵敏度。我们的代码的速度使我们能够确认我们的结果相对于一些数值参数的鲁棒性。

英文摘要:

We develop a new, efficient code for solving the second-order Einstein-Boltzmann equations, and use it to estimate the intrinsic CMB non-Gaussianity arising from the non-linear evolution of density perturbations. The full calculation involves contributions from recombination and less tractable contributions from terms integrated along the line of sight. We investigate the bias that this intrinsic bispectrum implies for searches of primordial non-Gaussianity. We find that the inclusion or omission of certain line of sight terms can make a large impact. When including all physical effects but lensing and time-delay, we find that the local-type f_nl would be biased by f_nl ~ 0.5, below the expected sensitivity of the Planck satellite. The speed of our code allows us to confirm the robustness of our results with respect to a number of numerical parameters.
