Title

Deciphering the Early Universe: Connecting Theory with Observations
Coauthors

Abstract

In this talk, I will explain how we can use measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), which was last scattered when the universe was 380,000 years old, to reconstruct the detailed physics of much earlier epochs, when the universe was only a tiny fraction of a second old. I will present the results of a joint analysis of BICEP2/Keck Array and Planck measurements of CMB polarization at different frequencies, and I will discuss the potential of upcoming high-sensitivity experiments to further constrain the physics underlying inflation.
