18 Theoretical template - It is essential to find a good template which captures the shapes of the bispectrum in theoretical models and at the same time reduces the computational time in evaluating the estimator. - We could miss an interesting signal if there is a signal which does not match the template c.f. orthogonal type Senatore, Smith, Zaldaliaga 08 cos Forthg equil F cosforthg Flocal

23 Primary effects nd order Boltzman equation coupled to nd order Einstein equations Pitrou, Uzan, Bernardeau (see also Bartolo, Matarrese, Riotto ) Temperature anisotropies multi-pole expansion 1 4 I I ( k, ) Q ( k), Q ( k) i Y, m 4 1 m m m m

26 Final results Planck sensitivity nd primary nd primary lensing-isw lensing-isw equil local contamination f 6, f 4.5 (cf. lensing-isw equil local f, f 8 ) Two late time effects add up and they should be detected by Planck

27 Full results are now available in the Poisson gauge (flat sky approximation, no ISW) Given cosmological parameters, we can calculate the non-primordial contributions without ambiguity and in principle they can be removed Need to find an effective way to remove the non-primordial contributions use the shape of the bispectrum? Need to speed-up a code -Synchronous gauge - implementation in the CAMB code - Inclusion of TTE, TEE, EEE Pitrou, Pettinari Portsmouth

28 Scalar, vector, tensor decomposition at second order, vectors and tensors are sourced by 1 st order scalars and we cannot separate their contributions from scalars nd order and quadratic of 1 st order contributions again a separation of these contributions does not have any physical meaning as the nd order variables is sourced by quadratic of 1 st order variables in Einstein equations In fact these separations are gauge dependentd This becomes clear if we write down the nd order Boltzmann equation without fixing a gauge Naruko, KK, Sasaki, Pitrou 10

29

30 Temporal gauge transformation mixes all the terms but the nd order Boltzmann equation is invariant! provides a very non-trivial i check of the calculation l nd order tensor contribution mixed with the lensing term etc.
