SUMMARY:Masashi Hazumi (KEK) "LiteBIRD Satellite for Tests of Cosmic Inflation and Quantum Gravity"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nCosmological inflation is the leading hypothesis to resolve the problems in the Big Bang theory.\nIt predicts that primordial gravitational waves were created during the inflationary era\, which\nthen imprinted large-scale curl patterns in the cosmic microwave background (CMB)\npolarization map called the B-modes.\nMeasurements of the CMB B-mode signals are known as the best probe\nto detect the primordial gravitational waves.\nLiteBIRD is a candidate for JAXA’s strategic large mission to map the polarization of\nthe CMB radiation over the full sky at large angular scales with unprecedented precision\,\nwhich will offer us a crucial test of cosmic inflation. It will also serve as the first crucial test of\nquantum gravity such as superstring theory. Precise polarization maps of LiteBIRD will also\nprovide us with valuable pieces of information on particle physics and astrophysics.\nIn this talk\, I will give an overview of the science and design of LiteBIRD
