abstract

In this paper we consider the influence of transplanckian physics on the CMBR anisotropies produced by inflation. We consider a simple toy model that allows for analytic calculations and argue on general grounds, based on ambiguities in the choice of vacuum, that effects are expected with a magnitude of the order of $H/\Lambda$, where $H$ is the Hubble constant during inflation and $\Lambda$ the scale for new physics, e.g. the Planck scale.

  1. Primordial power spectrum reconstructions from BOSS + eBOSS

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Non-parametric knot-based reconstruction of the primordial power spectrum P_R(k) from BOSS+eBOSS data up to k=0.3 h/Mpc favors a quasi-scale-invariant power law and constrains n_s = 0.976 ± 0.021 with no evidence for ...

  2. Recombination Thickness as an Uncertainty in Inflationary Observables

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Finite recombination thickness introduces Gaussian smoothing in ln k to the primordial power spectrum, producing non-trivial differences between TT and EE spectral indices that may be detectable in future CMB data.

  3. Tightening constraints on primordial oscillations with latest ACT and SPT data

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Combining ACT DR6, SPT-3G D1, and Planck CMB data tightens the 95% upper limits on primordial oscillation amplitudes to about 0.029, with no significant signal.
