David Wilkinson (1935~2002)
• Science Team Meeting, July, 2002• Plotted the “second point” (3.2cm) on the CMB spectrum
– The first confirmation of a black-body spectrum (1966)
• Made COBE and MAP happen and be successful• “The Father of CMB Experiment”• MAP has become WMAP in 2003

[COBE’s] measurements also marked the inception of cosmology as a precise science. It was not long before it was followed up, for instance by the WMAP satellite, which yielded even clearer images of the background radiation.

CMB: The Most Distant Light
CMB was emitted when the Universe was only 380,000 years old. WMAP has measured the distance to this epoch. From (time)=(distance)/c we obtained 13.73 0.16 billion years.

The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe
• A microwave satellite working at L2• Five frequency bands
– K (22GHz), Ka (33GHz), Q (41GHz), V (61GHz), W (94GHz)– Multi-frequency is crucial for cleaning the Galactic emission
• The Key Feature: Differential Measurement– The technique inherited from COBE– 10 “Differencing Assemblies” (DAs)– K1, Ka1, Q1, Q2, V1, V2, W1, W2, W3, & W4, each consisting of two
radiometers that are sensitive to orthogonal linear polarization modes.
• Temperature anisotropy is measured by single difference.• Polarization anisotropy is measured by double difference.

Boltzmann Equation
• Temperature anisotropy, , can be generated by gravitational effect (noted as “SW” = Sachs-Wolfe)
• Linear polarization (Q & U) cannot be generated gravitationally. It is generated only by scattering (noted as “C” = Compton scattering).
• Circular polarization (V) would not be generated.

Parameter Determination (ML): First Year vs Three Years
• The simplest LCDM model fits the data very well.– A power-law primordial power spectrum– Three relativistic neutrino species– Flat universe with cosmological constant
• The maximum likelihood values very consistent– Matter density and sigma8 went down slightly

No Detection of Gravity Waves (yet)• Our ability to
constrain the amplitude of gravity waves is still coming mostly from the temperature spectrum.– r<0.55 (95%)
• The B-mode spectrum adds very little.
• WMAP would have to integrate for >15 years to detect the B-mode spectrum from inflation.
r = Gravity Wave Amplitude / Scalar Curvature Fluctuations

What Should WMAP Say About Inflation? (See W.Kinney’s Talk)
Hint for ns<1
Zero GW (r=0) The 1-d marginalized constraint from WMAP alone is ns=0.96+-0.02.
Non-zero GWThe 2-d joint constraint still allows for ns=1.

What Should WMAP Say About Flatness of the Universe?
Flatness, or very low Hubble’s constant?
If H=30km/s/Mpc, a closed universe with Omega=1.3 w/o cosmological constant still fits the WMAP data.
![Page 31: WMAP Latest Results from WMAP: Three-year Observations Eiichiro Komatsu University of Texas at Austin January 24, 2007.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052207/5516668d550346c6758b618e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What Should WMAP Say About Dark Energy?
Not much!
The CMB data alone cannot constrain w very well. Combining the large-scale structure data or supernova data breaks degeneracy between w and matter density.
![Page 32: WMAP Latest Results from WMAP: Three-year Observations Eiichiro Komatsu University of Texas at Austin January 24, 2007.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052207/5516668d550346c6758b618e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• Understanding of– Noise,
– Systematics,
– Foreground, and
• Analysis techniques
• have significantly improved from the first-year release.
• A simple LCDM model fits both the temperature and polarization data very well.
• To-do list for the next data release (now working on the 5-year data)
• Understand FG and noise better.
• We are still using only 1/2 of the polarization data.
• These improvements, combined with more years of data, would further reduce the error on tau.
• Full 3-yr would give delta(tau)~0.02
• Full 6-yr would give delta(tau)~0.014 (hopefully)
• This will give us a better estimate of the tilt, and better constraints on inflation.
Summary
•Tau=0.09+-0.03
