非对称初态的半球反常

Hemispherical Anomaly from Asymmetric Initial States

Amjad Ashoorioon, Tomi Koivisto

摘要:

我们研究了CMB中的半球不对称性是否是由“不对称”激发的初始条件产生的。我们表明,在从Bunch-Davies真空的偏差是大的和新的物理的规模是最大限度地从膨胀哈勃参数分离的极限,原始功率谱调制仅由位置相关的偶极和四极条款。需要在功率谱中的偶极贡献占所观察到的功率不对称,$A=0.07\pm0.022$,我们表明,四极项的量大致等于$A^2$。{ \it平均}局部双谱在激发初始状态下得到增强,在普朗克2015年大场模型$f_{\rm NL}\simeq 4.17$结果的$1σ$范围内,但可以通过未来的CMB实验达到。局部非高斯性的幅度在该平均值周围调制,这取决于2d CMB表面上的相关块与优选方向形成的角度。对于短波长模式和长波长模式围绕优选极点和具有$f_{\rm NL}^{\rm min}\approx 3.64 $的$|\vec k_3|\approx |\vec k_{l\approx10}|\ll |\vec k_1|\approx |\vec k_2|\approx |\vec k_{l\approx2500}|$的配置,变化量最小。最大值出现在这些模式处于优选极点$f_{\rm NL}^{\rm max}\approx 4.81$的对极时。这两种配置之间的非高斯性差异与$\simeq 1.17$一样大,这可以用来将这种情况与试图解释所观察到的半球不对称性的其他情况区分开来。

英文摘要:

We investigate if the hemispherical asymmetry in the CMB is produced from "asymmetric" excited initial condition. We show that in the limit where the deviations from the Bunch-Davies vacuum is large and the scale of new physics is maximally separated from the inflationary Hubble parameter, the primordial power spectrum is modulated only by position dependent dipole and quadrupole terms. Requiring the dipole contribution in the power spectrum to account for the observed power asymmetry, $A=0.07\pm0.022$, we show that the amount of quadrupole terms is roughly equal to $A^2$. The {\it mean} local bispectrum, which gets enhanced for the excited initial state, is within the $1σ$ bound of Planck 2015 results for a large field model, $f_{\rm NL}\simeq 4.17$, but is reachable by future CMB experiments. The amplitude of the local non-gaussianity modulates around this mean value, depending on the angle that the correlated patches on the 2d CMB surface make with the preferred direction. The amount of variation minimizes for the configuration in which the short and long wavelengths modes are around the preferred pole and $|\vec k_3|\approx |\vec k_{l\approx10}|\ll |\vec k_1|\approx |\vec k_2|\approx |\vec k_{l\approx2500}|$ with $f_{\rm NL}^{\rm min}\approx 3.64 $. The maximum occurs when these modes are at the antipode of the preferred pole, $f_{\rm NL}^{\rm max}\approx 4.81$ . The difference of non-gaussianity between these two configurations is as large as $\simeq 1.17$ which can be used to distinguish this scenario from other scenarios that try to explain the observed hemispherical asymmetry.
