Updated Design of the CMB Polarization Experiment Satellite Litebird
Journal of Low Temperature Physics (2020) 199:1107–1117 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10909-019-02329-w Updated Design of the CMB Polarization Experiment Satellite LiteBIRD H. Sugai, et al. [full author details at the end of the article] Received: 30 August 2019 / Accepted: 26 December 2019 / Published online: 27 January 2020 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Recent developments of transition-edge sensors (TESs), based on extensive experi- ence in ground-based experiments, have been making the sensor techniques mature enough for their application on future satellite cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiments. LiteBIRD is in the most advanced phase among such future satellites, targeting its launch in Japanese Fiscal Year 2027 (2027FY) with JAXA’s H3 rocket. It will accommodate more than 4000 TESs in focal planes of refective low-frequency and refractive medium-and-high-frequency telescopes in order to detect a signature imprinted on the CMB by the primordial gravitational waves predicted in cosmic infation. The total wide frequency coverage between 34 and 448 GHz enables us to extract such weak spiral polarization patterns through the precise subtraction of our Galaxy’s foreground emission by using spectral dif- ferences among CMB and foreground signals. Telescopes are cooled down to 5 K for suppressing thermal noise and contain polarization modulators with transmis- sive half-wave plates at individual apertures for separating sky polarization signals from artifcial polarization and for mitigating from instrumental 1/f noise. Passive cooling by using V-grooves supports active cooling with mechanical coolers as well as adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators. Sky observations from the second Sun– Earth Lagrangian point, L2, are planned for 3 years. -

Mitigating the optical depth degeneracy using the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect with CMB-S4 1, 2, 2, 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 5, 6, Marcelo A. Alvarez, ∗ Simone Ferraro, y J.

Dunlap Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Toronto, 50 St George Street, Toronto ON, M5S 3H4, Canada The epoch of reionization is one of the major phase transitions in the history of the universe, and is a focus of ongoing and upcoming cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments with im- proved sensitivity to small-scale fluctuations. Reionization also represents a significant contaminant to CMB-derived cosmological parameter constraints, due to the degeneracy between the Thomson- scattering optical depth, τ, and the amplitude of scalar perturbations, As. This degeneracy subse- quently hinders the ability of large-scale structure data to constrain the sum of the neutrino masses, a major target for cosmology in the 2020s. In this work, we explore the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect as a probe of reionization, and show that it can be used to mitigate the optical depth degeneracy with high-sensitivity, high-resolution data from the upcoming CMB-S4 experiment. -
Science from Litebird
Prog. Theor. Exp. Phys. 2012, 00000 (27 pages) DOI: 10.1093=ptep/0000000000 Science from LiteBIRD LiteBIRD Collaboration: (Fran¸coisBoulanger, Martin Bucher, Erminia Calabrese, Josquin Errard, Fabio Finelli, Masashi Hazumi, Sophie Henrot-Versille, Eiichiro Komatsu, Paolo Natoli, Daniela Paoletti, Mathieu Remazeilles, Matthieu Tristram, Patricio Vielva, Nicola Vittorio) 8/11/2018 ............................................................................... The LiteBIRD satellite will map the temperature and polarization anisotropies over the entire sky in 15 microwave frequency bands. These maps will be used to obtain a clean measurement of the primordial temperature and polarization anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background in the multipole range 2 ` 200: The LiteBIRD sensitivity will be better than that of the ESA Planck satellite≤ by≤ at least an order of magnitude. This document summarizes some of the most exciting new science results anticipated from LiteBIRD. Under the conservatively defined \full success" criterion, LiteBIRD will 3 measure the tensor-to-scalar ratio parameter r with σ(r = 0) < 10− ; enabling either a discovery of primordial gravitational waves from inflation, or possibly an upper bound on r; which would rule out broad classes of inflationary models. Upon discovery, LiteBIRD will distinguish between two competing origins of the gravitational waves; namely, the quantum vacuum fluctuation in spacetime and additional matter fields during inflation. We also describe how, under the \extra success" criterion using data external to Lite- BIRD, an even better measure of r will be obtained, most notably through \delensing" and improved subtraction of polarized synchrotron emission using data at lower frequen- cies. LiteBIRD will also enable breakthrough discoveries in other areas of astrophysics. We highlight the importance of measuring the reionization optical depth τ at the cosmic variance limit, because this parameter must be fixed in order to allow other probes to measure absolute neutrino masses. -

Cosmic Microwave Background
1 29. Cosmic Microwave Background 29. Cosmic Microwave Background Revised August 2019 by D. Scott (U. of British Columbia) and G.F. Smoot (HKUST; Paris U.; UC Berkeley; LBNL). 29.1 Introduction The energy content in electromagnetic radiation from beyond our Galaxy is dominated by the cosmic microwave background (CMB), discovered in 1965 [1]. The spectrum of the CMB is well described by a blackbody function with T = 2.7255 K. This spectral form is a main supporting pillar of the hot Big Bang model for the Universe. The lack of any observed deviations from a 7 blackbody spectrum constrains physical processes over cosmic history at redshifts z ∼< 10 (see earlier versions of this review). Currently the key CMB observable is the angular variation in temperature (or intensity) corre- lations, and to a growing extent polarization [2–4]. Since the first detection of these anisotropies by the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite [5], there has been intense activity to map the sky at increasing levels of sensitivity and angular resolution by ground-based and balloon-borne measurements. These were joined in 2003 by the first results from NASA’s Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP)[6], which were improved upon by analyses of data added every 2 years, culminating in the 9-year results [7]. In 2013 we had the first results [8] from the third generation CMB satellite, ESA’s Planck mission [9,10], which were enhanced by results from the 2015 Planck data release [11, 12], and then the final 2018 Planck data release [13, 14]. Additionally, CMB an- isotropies have been extended to smaller angular scales by ground-based experiments, particularly the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) [15] and the South Pole Telescope (SPT) [16]. -

Therefore, discovery of axions will have far-reaching consequences in astrophysics, cosmology and particle physics. We describe a new concept for SmallSat Solar Axion X-ray Telescope (SSAXI) to search for solar axions or axion-like particles (ALPs). Axions or ALPs are expected to emerge abundantly from the core of stars like the Sun. SSAXI employs Miniature lightweight Wolter-I focusing X-ray optics (MiXO) and monolithic CMOS X-ray sensors to form a sensitive X-ray imaging spectrometer in a compact package (~10 x 10 x 60 cm). The wide energy range (~0.5 – 5 keV) of SSAXI is suitable for capturing the prime spectral feature of axion-converted X-rays (peaking at ~3 – 4 keV) from solar X-ray spectra. -

Yet very little is known about this story, and about the politics and perceptions that are continuing to drive Japanese efforts despite many outright failures in the indigenization of the industry. This story, therefore, is important not just because of the widespread economic and technological merits of the space launch vehicles sector which are considerable. It is also important because it speaks directly to the ongoing debates about the Japanese developmental state and, contrary to the new wisdom in light of Japan's recession, the continuation of its high technology policy as a whole.
