Causal bounds on cosmological angular correlation

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | First 5 Authors: Craig Hogan, Ohkyung Kwon, Stephan S. Meyer, Nathaniel Selub, Frederick Wehlen | Summary: Causal relationships in conformal geometry are used to analyze angular boundaries of cosmic microwave background (CMB) correlations. It is shown that curvature correlations limited to timelike intervals on world lines that have connected causal […]

Causal bounds on cosmological angular correlation

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | First 5 Authors: Craig Hogan, Ohkyung Kwon, Stephan S. Meyer, Nathaniel Selub, Frederick Wehlen | Summary: We formulate a new hypothesis for causal coherence of gravitational quantum fluctuations, and test its predicted constraints on large-scale angular correlations in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). We posit that {it quantum fluctuations generate […]

Causal bounds on cosmological angular correlation

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | First 5 Authors: Craig Hogan, Ohkyung Kwon, Stephan S. Meyer, Nathaniel Selub, Frederick Wehlen | Summary: We test the hypothesis that angular correlations of gravitationally-induced temperature anisotropy in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) vanish over a range of large angular separations constrained by causality. Standard conformal geometry is used to […]

Nearly-zero large-angle anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | First 5 Authors: Craig Hogan, Ohkyung Kwon, Stephan S. Meyer, Nathaniel Selub, Frederick Wehlen | Summary: The global isotropy of the universe is analyzed on the scale of the cosmic horizon, using the angular correlation function $C(Theta)$ of cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature at large angular separation $Theta$. Even-parity correlation […]

Flux coupled tunable superconducting resonator

Kavli Affiliate: Clarence Chang | First 5 Authors: Juliang Li, Pete Barry, Tom Cecil, Marharyta Lisovenko, Volodymyr Yefremenko | Summary: We present a design and implementation of frequency-tunable superconducting resonator. The resonance frequency tunability is achieved by flux-coupling a superconducting LC-loop to a current-biased feedline; the resulting screening current leads to a change of the […]
