残余引力子的宇宙背景及其绝对归一化

Cosmic backgrounds of relic gravitons and their absolute normalization

Massimo Giovannini

摘要:

在不违反一致性关系的前提下,最近的Bicep 2观测确定了暴胀过程中产生的宇宙引力子背景的绝对归一化、谱斜率和最大频率。由此计算从最低频率(当前哈勃速率的量级)到GHz区域中的最高频率范围的适当归一化的光谱。偏离传统的范式不能被排除在外,并允许不同的物理可能性,包括检查,特别是,运行的张量谱指数,明确打破的一致性关系和尖峰的频谱的高频尾部要么从后通货膨胀阶段为主的刚性流体的瀑布场的贡献在混合通货膨胀的情况下。在低频直接确定张量标量比,如果通过即将到来的观测得到证实,也将影响和限制高频的不确定性。来自宽带干涉仪(如Ligo/Virgo,Lisa和Bbo/Decigo)的宇宙引力子背景的限制,以及对低频张量B模偏振的更准确的审查,将直接限制后暴胀演化和其他非常规的标准知识的完成。

英文摘要:

Provided the consistency relations are not violated, the recent Bicep2 observations pin down the absolute normalization, the spectral slope and the maximal frequency of the cosmic graviton background produced during inflation. The properly normalized spectra are hereby computed from the lowest frequencies (of the order of the present Hubble rate) up to the highest frequency range in the GHz region. Deviations from the conventional paradigm cannot be excluded and are examined by allowing for different physical possibilities including, in particular, a running of the tensor spectral index, an explicit breaking of the consistency relations and a spike in the high-frequency tail of the spectrum coming either from a post-inflationary phase dominated by a stiff fluid of from the contribution of waterfall fields in a hybrid inflationary context. The direct determinations of the tensor to scalar ratio at low frequencies, if confirmed by the forthcoming observations, will also affect and constrain the high-frequencies uncertainties. The limits on the cosmic graviton backgrounds coming from wide-band interferometers (such as Ligo/Virgo, Lisa and Bbo/Decigo) together with a more accurate scrutiny of the tensor B mode polarization at low frequencies will set direct bounds on the post-inflationary evolution and on other unconventional completions of the standard lore.
