  1. The PLANCK mission & on behalf of the PLANCK collaboration Cécile Renault Laboratoire de Physique Subatomique et de Cosmologie Grenoble - France

  2. from CMB to cosmology • COBE : T3K & large scale anisotropies  hot BB • Balloons & ground-based experiments : intermediate scale fluctuations  inflation • WMAP : large to med. scale T & large scale TE anisotropies  concordance model • Planck will measure large to small scale T & E anisotropies & constrain B-mode fluctuations •  • Precision cosmology, • new physics ? Planck 1 year 5 x 5 deg. Field T anisotropies WMAP 2 years WMAP 8 years 94 GHz - 15’ FWHM 217 GHz - 5’ FWHM Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008

  3. WMAP 4 years Planck - 15 months designed to be cosmic variance limited across essentially the entire primary MB T anisotropy power spectrum Blue book simulations T Power spectra From pure CMB maps Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008

  4. WMAP 5 years Nolta et al 2008 Blue book simulations Detailed history of reionization & tests of adiabaticity to high precison E Power spectra From pure CMB maps Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008

  5. B-mode sensitivity From pure CMB maps Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008

  6. CMB as a powerful tool • CMB = picture of the Universe ~ 380,000 years after BB • temperature predicted by the BB model • propertiesstrongly linked to inflation : • perturbation generation mechanism • ~ scale invariance •  ~ 1 predicted • Enough information to check most of the hypotheses • all sky  isotropy checked • known linear physics predicts the distribution  gaussianity checked • large leverage redshift distribution when combined with other observables (clusters, supernovae …) to check structure evolution • Link between cosmology & high energy physics • sound speed at recombination  Universe content • neutrinos mass • footprint of the energy scale of inflation Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008

  7. Need for accuracy Blue Book simulations Comparing concordance CDM model with ns = 0.95 and no run (solid line) and same ns (at fiducial wave number k0 = 0.5 Mpc-1) and run dns/dln k = -0.03 TOP : —model with no running index ·simulated observations with running index  deviations from a pure scale invariant power spectrum would provide a firm probe of the dynamics of an inflationary period Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008

  8. bh2ch2 ns nrunlog[1010As] H0 Cosmological parameters main parameters : better than % Precision predictions & measurements  tests of new physics become possible Blue book simulations Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008

  9. low temperature instrument  similar sensitivity per 20’ pixel for WMAP 8 years @ 70 K and Planck low frequency 1 year @ 20 K • or for WMAP 1 year @ 70 K and Planck high freq. 12 hours @ 0.1 K • high redundancy for noise reduction and systematic effects monitoring • large spectral leverage • from 30 to 857 GHz for efficient separation of Galactic emission, from synchrotron to dust Instrumental challenges & Planck solutions • Tiny signal  “equivalent to the thermal emission from a rabbit living on the Moon, as seen from Earth, with a human being close to the detector” • T  E  B : signals decreased by orders of magnitude • Significant additive signals from foregrounds Cécile Renault “Rencontres de Moriond” on Cosmology March, 17th, 2008
