Acoustic wave equation in the expanding universe. Sachs-Wolfe theorem
In this paper the acoustic field propagating in the early hot (p = ǫ/3) universe of arbitrary space curvature (K = 0, ±1) is considered. The field equations are reduced to the d'Alembert equation in an auxiliary static Roberson–Walker space-time. Symbolic computation in Mathematica is applied.
متن کاملThe Sachs-Wolfe effect
We present a pedagogical derivation of the SachsWolfe effect, specifically the factor 3 relating the temperature fluctuations to gravitational potentials. The result arises from a cancellation between gravitational redshifts and intrinsic temperature fluctuations which can be derived from a coordinate transformation of the background.
متن کاملADetection of the Integrated Sachs-Wolfe Effect
We have detected statistically significant correlations between the cosmic microwave background and two tracers of large-scale structure, the HEAO1 A2 full sky hard X-ray map (Boldt, 1987) and the NVSS 1.4 GHz, nearly full sky radio galaxy survey (Condon et al., 1998). The level of correlations in these maps is consistent with that predicted for the integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect in the co...
متن کاملInverting the Sachs–Wolfe formula: an inverse problem arising in early-universe cosmology
The (ordinary) Sachs–Wolfe effect relates primordial matter perturbations to the temperature variations δT/T in the cosmic microwave background radiation; δT/T can be observed in all directions around us. A standard but idealised model of this effect leads to an infinite set of moment-like equations: the integral of P (k) j2 ` (ky) with respect to k (0 < k < ∞) is equal to a given constant, C`,...
متن کاملNonlinear integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect
We discuss the nonlinear extension to the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect ~ISW! resulting from the divergence of the large scale structure momentum density field. The nonlinear ISW effect leads to an increase in the total ISW contribution by roughly two orders of magnitude at l;1000. This increase, however, is still below the cosmic variance limit of the primary anisotropies; at further small ang...
