Fundamental Findings A simple flat model with six parameters fits 1,000,000 data points remarkably well. We see there must be superhorizon fluctuations from the TE data. SN The Einstein-de Sitter model is disfavored by the WMAP CMB data at > 5 sigma. WMAP A closed model fits the data but requires H0=33 km/sec, in conflict with other non-CMB data. WMAP/NVSS ISW disfavors this as well. Next steps in constraining models of the 10-35 s universe. Measure ns and the running of the index. Measure or constrain r, the tensor to scalar index.

The scalar index, ns,with six parameters. WMAP +SDSS Tegmark et al. 2004 +SDSS Galaxies and Lya Seljak et al. 2004 Simple models of inflation predict: This is significant in that it is a clear departure from scale invariance. We expect ns to 1% by 2008 from the CMB. Running of the scalar index. SDSS Galaxies In the two recent analyses of WMAP Tegmark et al. 2004 plus SDSS there is no evidence for Galaxies and Lya running. Seljak et al. 2004 An analysis of CBI+WMAP+LSS shows evidence of running at the 3- Readhead et al. 2004 sigma level (-0.085+/-0.031) but the CBI team does not place a lot of weight on the result.

A component of the polarization is correlated with the temperature anisotropy.

Spergel et al, 2003 Spergel et al, 2003 Tegmark et al, 2004 Seljak et al, 2004 All come from the temperature anisotropy and will improve. Simple models of inflation are being leaned on! A possible 95% cl limit on r from TT is roughly 0.1. Kosowsky, ‘04 The window for using B modes to detect r will open soon. The tensor to scalar ratio is being constrained by the low l region of the TT spectrum. When r is added to the mix of parameters (making 7), ns rises to compensate. There is a ns-r degeneracy*. WMAP WMAP+SDSS Tegmark et al WMAP+SDSS+Lya Seljak et al This is starting to lean on r=0.27 for simple models of inflation. *and tau, A too. Sensitivity Advances COBE >x60 WMAP >x20 Planck >x50?
