Large Angle Cmb Anisotropy in an Open Universe in the One-bubble Innationary Scenario
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider an alternative scenario of innation which can account for a spatially open universe. It is similar to the old innation in which the bubble nucleation occurs in the sea of false vacuum, but diiers from it in that the second slow rollover innation occurs inside a nucleated bubble. Hence our observable universe is entirely contained in one nucleated bubble. The signiicance of the scenario is that apart from a variance due to model parameters it gives us a deenite prediction on the spectrum of the primordial density perturbations, hence is observationally testable. Here we investigate the spectrum of CMB anisotropies on large angular scales. We nd that the contribution from peculiar modes which never appear in the usual harmonic analysis is signiicant in the case 0 < 0:1.

Electromagnetic Origin of the CMBAnisotropy in String
In the innationary scenarios suggested by string theory, the vacuum uctuations of the electromagnetic eld can be ampliied by the time-evolution of the dilaton background, and can grow large enough to explain both the origin of the cosmic magnetic elds and of the observed CMB anisotropy. The normalization of the perturbation spectrum is xed, and implies a relation between the perturbation amplit...

The measurements of CMB anisotropy have opened up a window for probing the global topol-ogy of the universe on length scales comparable to and beyond the Hubble radius. We have developed a new method for calculating the CMB anisotropy in models with nontrivial topol-ogy and apply it to open universe models with compact spatial topology. We conduct a Bayesian probability analysis for a selection...
متن کاملSingle-bubble Open Inflation: an Overview
The idea that the universe might be open is an old one, and the possibility of having an open universe arise form inflation is not new either. However, a concrete realization of a consistent single-bubble open inflation model is known only recently. There has been great progress in the last two years in the development of models of inflation consistent with observations in such an open universe...
متن کاملCross-correlation studies with CMB polarization maps
The free-electron population during the reionized epoch rescatters the cosmic microwave background ~CMB! temperature quadrupole and generates a now well-known polarization signal at large angular scales. While this contribution has been detected in the temperature-polarization cross power spectrum measured with Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe data, due to the large cosmic variance associat...
متن کاملSuccessful Supersymmetric Inflation
The temperature uctuations in the cosmic microwave background observed by COBE provide strong support for an innationary phase in the early universe, below the GUT scale. We argue that a singlet eld in a hidden sector of an eeective supergravity theory yields the required innationary potential without ne tuning. Reheating occurs to a temperature low enough to avoid the gravitino problem, but hi...
