Background Radiations, Gravitational Wave Detectors And Experiments

Scientific paper

Long wavelength gravity waves produce a distinctive signature of polarization fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background. With very sensitive experiments with minimal systematics, this signal is potentially detectable. Since the universe was transparent to gravity waves back to the Planck time, gravity wave observations are a probe of physics in the early universe and physics at very high energy scales. In this talk, I review the current status of microwave background experiments. I then discuss the coming generation of experiments that should be of detecting polarization fluctuations produce by scalar fluctuations. A future satellite experiment (beyond MAP and Planck) will likely be needed to detect tensor fluctuations. .
