摘要:

原初功率谱中的尖锐特征是探索暴胀时期的有力窗口。迄今为止,宇宙微波背景(CMB)为搜寻这些特征提供了最灵敏的途径。在本文中,我们展示了大规模结构观测超越CMB作为原初特征探针的能力。我们表明,星系巡天中的特征可以从宽带功率谱中分离出来,并且其对物质非线性演化的稳健性与标准重子声学振荡相当。因此,分析可以利用数据集中线性区域之外的大量尺度范围。我们为大规模结构开发了一种特征搜索方法,将其应用于重子振荡光谱巡天(BOSS)的最终数据发布,并发现了新的振荡特征界限,这些界限在相当大的频率范围内超过了普朗克(Planck)的灵敏度。此外,我们预测,下一代星系巡天,如暗能量光谱仪(DESI)和欧几里得(Euclid),将能够在扩展的频率范围内将当前约束提高多达一个数量级。

英文摘要:

Sharp features in the primordial power spectrum are a powerful window into the inflationary epoch. To date, the cosmic microwave background (CMB) has offered the most sensitive avenue to search for these signatures. In this paper, we demonstrate the power of large-scale structure observations to surpass the CMB as a probe of primordial features. We show that the signatures in galaxy surveys can be separated from the broadband power spectrum and are as robust to the nonlinear evolution of matter as the standard baryon acoustic oscillations. As a result, analyses can exploit a significant range of scales beyond the linear regime available in the datasets. We develop a feature search for large-scale structure, apply it to the final data release of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and find new bounds on oscillatory features that exceed the sensitivity of Planck for a significant range of frequencies. Moreover, we forecast that the next generation of galaxy surveys, such as DESI and Euclid, will be able to improve current constraints by up to an order of magnitude over an expanded frequency range.
