Inflation (Starobinsky, 1980; Guth, 1981)

  • Period of fast and accelerated expansion in the very early universe
  • Energy content of the universe dominated by a scalar field
  • Solves several issues of the standard Big Bang theory

Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB)

CMB (observed in 1964 by Penzias and Wilson)

  • Relic radiation emitted 380000 years after the Big Bang
  • Blackbody spectrum at a temperature of 2.725 ± 0.001 K
  • Coming from all parts of the sky with a uniform temperature
  • Observational window on the primordial universe

Perturbations

  • Primordial fluctuations → Large-scale structures present now
  • Explained by inflation: scalar field quantum fluctuations + expansion
  • Single-field inflation → perturbations are frozen on super-Hubble

scales → simple link between inflationary perturbations and CMB anisotropies

Perturbations

First-order perturbation theory:

  • Many inflation models predict an almost Gaussian and almost

scale-invariant distribution of the perturbations ⇒ We only need the power spectrum (Fourier transform of the two-point correlator): Ps ∝ kns−1 with ns = 0.968 ± 0.006 (Planck, 1502.02114)

  • At late times: extra-galactic and galactic foregrounds
  • Primordial ⇒ important to discriminate inflation models

⇒ Many different shapes to look for in the observational data

Summary

  • Almost single-field ⇒ Far from the turn of the field trajectory

(before the turn ¯ v12 negligible, same for fNL)

  • Slow-roll ⇒ Everything is evolving slowly
  • Time is limited between horizon-crossing and the end of inflation:

∼ 60 e-folds at most Is it possible to have the turn of the field trajectory without breaking the slow-roll approximation?

Summary

Sum potential

  • Simple expressions different from single-field inflation

ns − 1 = −2ǫ∗ + 2 ˜ Vσσ∗ − 6

5fNL = − Vσσ∗ V∗

  • Large fNL ⇒ Quasi single-field inflation and fine tuning
  • Observations of ns constrain also fNL (depending on the model)

Monomial potential

  • Large fNL is possible but most of parameter space is excluded
  • φ has to dominate almost the whole time after horizon-crossing
  • The turn can only occur near the end of the slow-roll regime

⇒ η and η⊥ are O(10−1) at the start of the turn ⇒ Then O(1) during the turn is easy, slow-roll is broken ⇒ In that case, slow-roll predictions cannot be trusted ⇒ We need to go beyond the slow-roll approximation!!

⇒ use the binned bispectrum of any map as a theoretical template

  • Method tested with several galactic foregrounds → dust (here)

⇒ We detected the expected amount in both simulations and

⇒ Foregrounds correlated to the local shape (similar squeezed configuration) ⇒ Choice of bins at low ℓ is important

Conclusion and outlook

  • New feature of the binned bispectrum estimator: numerical

theoretical templates determined from any map ⇒ Tested with the galactic foregrounds which are strongly non-Gaussian and correlated to the local shape (large contamination)

  • Method ready to analyze E-polarization (new Planck release)
  • Conditions for large fNL for two-field sum potentials

W (φ, σ) = U(φ) + V (σ) in and beyond the slow-roll approximation:

  • Quasi single-field inflation at horizon-crossing
  • The ratio Vσσ∗

V∗

has to be O(1)

  • However, Vσσ∗

W∗

is constrained by observations of the spectral index. When combined with spectral index observational constraints ⇒ Hard to have fNL ∼ O(1), even impossible for most of the parameter space with monomial potentials

  • Is the situation similar for more complicated models?
  • Next generation of CMB experiments can improve a lot the

constraints on non-Gaussianity, especially if the spectral index is in the higher values of the current bounds
