Frequency-dependent constraints on cosmic birefringence from the LFI and HFI Planck Data Release 4

J. R. Eskilt

Summary: This study presents new constraints on the frequency dependence of the cosmic birefringence angle using data from the Planck Data Release 4 polarization maps. The results are consistent with predictions from an axion field coupled to electromagnetism and Faraday rotation from local magnetic fields. The findings provide valuable insights into the nature of cosmic birefringence.

Cosmic birefrigence: cross-spectra and cross-bispectra with CMB anisotropies

Alessandro Greco et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the impact of cosmic birefringence induced by parity-violating extensions of Maxwell electromagnetism on the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), and how to study this effect through the calculation of angular power spectra and bispectra. The study shows that even in the absence of primordial cross-correlations, non-vanishing three-point correlation functions carrying signatures of parity-breaking physics exist.

Constraints on cosmic birefringence using E-mode polarisation

Arefe Abghari et al.

Summary: This paper investigates a method for exploring a birefringent universe through the rotation of the plane of polarization of cosmic microwave background photons. The authors propose an independent method for extracting the birefringence angle using only temperature and E-mode signals. They forecast that with an ideal experiment, a birefringence angle of 0.3 degrees can be constrained with 3 sigma statistical significance. Additionally, the authors explore the impact of systematic errors introduced by polarization efficiency and suggest this method as an additional way to verify claimed birefringence signatures derived from B modes.

Improved constraints on cosmic birefringence from the WMAP and Planck cosmic microwave background polarization data

Johannes R. Eskilt et al.

Summary: In this study, new measurements of cosmic birefringence are presented from a joint analysis of polarization data from the Planck and WMAP space missions. The results show that the plane of linear polarization of cosmic microwave background photons may have rotated during their 13 billion-year journey, with no evidence of frequency dependence. This finding has significant implications for the study of physics violating parity symmetry.

New physics from the polarized light of the cosmic microwave background

Eiichiro Komatsu

Summary: The polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) holds clues to the nature of dark matter and dark energy, as well as the origin of structures in the Universe. Two phenomena that could be observed in CMB data are cosmic birefringence, which could indicate violations of symmetry, and the presence of primordial gravitational waves generated during cosmic inflation.
