CBR anisotropy and the running of the scalar spectral index

Open access
Kosowsky, Arthur, Turner, Michael S.·1995·Physical Review D

Abstract

Accurate (\ensuremath{\lesssim}1%) predictions for the anisotropy of the cosmic background radiation (CBR) are essential for using future high-resolution (\ensuremath{\lesssim}1\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}) CBR maps to test cosmological models. In many inflationary models the variation (``running'') of the spectral index of the spectrum of density perturbations is a significant effect and leads to changes of around 1--10 % in the CBR power spectrum. We propose a general method for taking running into account which uses the derivative of the spectral index (dn/dlnk). Conversely, high-resolution CBR maps may be able to determine dn/dlnk, giving important information about the inflationary potential.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
