16 Simplest inflation predictions spectral index n s close to 1: n s -1 = -3(1+w)~0.05 directly related to w=p/ρ 1: 1+w ~ 0.02 primordial gravitational waves produce B mode polarization inflation energy scale ~ GUT tensor to scalar fluctuations: r~20 to 30 % In cyclic universe r is very low

17 CMB polarization spectra 3 observables : T, E, B 6 spectra : TT, EE, BB, TE, TB, EB T, E : scalars B : pseudo-scalars TB, EB = 0 1 to 4 orders of magnitude weaker than T

18 lensing of the CMB lensing by dark matter structures at low z produces B mode polarization at sub degree scales depends on the structure depends on the expansion rate (which in turn affects the structure development) lensing of CMB is a probe of dark energy complementary to weak lensing on galaxies

19 Neutrinos masses Oscillations experiments are only sensitive to the squared mass difference between the different neutrinos Massive neutrinos cluster on large scale but free-stream on small scale Modification of the mass spectrum + non gaussian signature in the polarization B mode WMAP (TT) + cosmo : m ν < 0.23 ev B mode: m ν < 0.05 ev Kaplinghat et al, 2002

23 Future experiments Dedicated CMB polarization satellite : EPIC Important efforts invested in the quest for CMB polarization Systematics and foregrounds!

24 Planck mission concept Planck conceived to be limited by foregrounds for T measurements instantaneous sensitivity limited by photon noise (cryogenic detectors), total power measurements ` broad frequency coverage: 30 GHz to 1 THz (2 technologies) 5 arc minutes resolution for the best CMB channels polarization measurements in a very broad range For Polarization Planck will be sensitivity limited but the broad frequency coverage (30 GHz-353 GHz) should be very good for foregrounds half way between WMAP and an inflation probe mission `

27 Planck planned capabilities

28 Planck Polarized planned capabilities (and comparison to WMAP) sensitivity for 20 arcmin pixels, Planck:14 months WMAP: 2 years

29 Measured performances: HFI bolometers in specs (most time constants close to the goals, a few at the specification level, NEP below or within 10% of the photon noise) excellent total optical efficiency measured in the ARCHEOPS flight (better than 40%) read out electronics: no 1/f noise down to 10-2 Hz many aspect of the Planck HFI concept have been tested with the ARCHEOPS balloon borne experiment
