One slide on CMB angular anisotropies …

In the hot, dense, ionized universe, just before hydrogen recombination , matter and radiation are in thermal EQ. (black body spectrum) and radiation pressure induced by Thomson scattering competes with gravitational attraction in slightly overdense regions, creating an acoustic oscillation pattern both in CMB photon intensity and polarization

THE OVERALL PICTURE:

CosmoRenata meeting, Valencia, June 3rd 2013

PLANCK VERSUS WMAP

 5 different channels at 22,

33, 44, 63, 94 GHz

 Maximum angular resolution of ~0.23 degrees

 Max. sensitivity of ~5 muK per square degree (94 GHz)

 10 different channels at 30,

44, 70, 100, 143, 217, 353, 545 and 857 GHz

 Maximum angular resolution of ~0.075 degrees

 Max. sensitivity of ~0.25 muK per square degree (143 GHz)

PLANCK, with many more frequency channels and better angular resolution, should:

 Improve CMB measurements to smaller angular scales

 Remove more efficiently the contaminants (mostly due to the Milky Way or point sources)

 Characterize secondary effects much more accurately

 Map the E mode of the polarization to much better precision and smaller angular scales

 Set constraints on the amount of B-mode polarization

 Establish stronger constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity

 Provide much more complete tSZ source catalog

 Etc ...

All this should translate into better precision in the cosmological parameters ...

How Planck got there …

• Two different elle regimes: l < 50 and l \in [50,1500]

• l<50 : Gibbs sampling on all Planck channels

• l >50: Two different likelihood estimators: CamSpec & Plik, using cosmological channels only [100, 143 and 217 GHz] o CamSpec is more accurate and CPU demanding. o Plik does not account for C_l correlation so accurately, but still very useful for running consistency tests

• Systematic test at two levels: o Intra-pair level (pair of frequencies, after combining different subsets of detectors belonging to same frequency pair ) – probing issues like detector calibration, beam and noise characterisation o Inter-pair level (involving detectors of different frequencies) – probing foreground related issues

There is a lot of secondary Science …

Secondary anisotropies == Anisotropies introduced along the CMB photon ’s way to us by gravitational potential wells, scattering with electrons, etc

• Firm detection of lensing of CMB temperature anisotropies

• Firm detection of the correlation of CMB lensing to high-z, dusty sources spanning the redshift range z \in [1,5]

• Detection of clusters by means of the thermal Sunyaev Zel’dovich effect

CMB Lensing

CMB light rays become deflected by the matter distribution along the line of sight by typically 2 —3 arcmins.

The 2D potential field generating this deflection has been detected, and its angular power spectrum measured with unprecedented accuracy:

Planck identifies clusters via the tSZ effect …

 If however the CMB encounters a hot electron plasma, then there is a net transfer of energy from the hot electrons to the cold photons. As a result, we have fewer cold low energy photons and more hot high frequency photons. This results in a distortion of the black body CMB spectrum, i.e., in frequency dependent brightness temperature fluctuations.

CosmoRenata meeting, Valencia, June 3rd 2013

Conclusions

• Simple 6-parameters LCDM model fits Planck data beautifully.

• Strong consistency and systematic tests. Better understanding of contaminants

• Temporary polarization data largely compatible with TT (temperature) best fit model. Coherent picture.

• Strong constraints on non-Gaussianity (Vielva’s talk). Presence of anomalies

• Detection of CMB lensing: moderate z – universe very well described by model based upon observations at z~1,100 !!

• Detection of clusters and hot baryons at low redshift.

• Absence of large scale peculiar motions: direct confirmation of Copernican principle
