1 Next Generation Data Sets: An Overview of CMB-S4 and WFIRST David Spergel Princeton University Center for Computational Astrophysics, Flatiron Institute

2 Outline Next generation CMB experiments: Simons Observatory + CMB-S4 Next generation optical/IR surveys: WFIRST Combining CMB + Optical data – two recent examples from Emmanuel Schaan’s PhD thesis work

3 Future CMB Observations Measure EE spectrum to l of 4000-5000 across most of the sky (4 x Planck modes) – 2x improvement on non-Gaussianity constraints Measure BB spectrum – > 100  detection of gravitational lensing – r ~0.001 sensitivity for gravitational waves Probe of low redshift universe – Clusters – KSZ effect (large-scale flows)

4 4 The rms deflection is about 2.7 arcmins, but the deflections are coherent on degree scales. CMB as a Backlight Gravitational Lensing [Projected Mass] TSZ [Projected Pressure] KSZ [Projected Momentum]

10 The Simons Observatory POLARBEAR/Simons Array ACT A five year, $45M+ program to pursue key Cosmic Microwave Background science targets, and advance technology and infrastructure in preparation for CMB-S4. Merger of the ACT and POLARBEAR/Simons Array teams. Tentative plans include: Major site infrastructure Technology development (detectors, optics, cameras) Demonstration of new high throughput telescopes. CMB-S4 class receivers with partially filled focal planes. Data analysis http://simonsobservatory.org

11 Wide or Deep?

Only observatory doing such comprehensive observations High precision measurements will be optimally combined for the best measurement Premier Dark Energy Observatory 16 Weinberg & SDT 2015 WFIRST Probes of Expansion and Growth

17 17 Premier Dark Energy Observatory WFIRST will be the first mission to fully exploit the powerful IR band for dark energy measurements. It will be much more sensitive and have higher angular resolution than any other dark energy instrument. WFIRST HH OIII Euclid IR Optical redshift (distance) BAO Density Parameter

23 Combining LSST + CMB-S4 Data Emmanuel Schaan (Princeton), Eifler, Krause, et al. in prep. CMB lensing adds a high redshift source plane with very different systematics and can be used to determine the multiplicative bias in optical lensing surveys

27 Cross-correlating CMB lensing + Lyman alpha Power Spectrum Vallinotto, Das, Spergel & Viel (2009): use cross-correlation to probe relationship between Lyman alpha forest + underlying mass distribution Cyrille Doux (APC), Emmanuel Schaan et al. combine DR12 Lyman alpha forest data with Planck lensing

29 Combining KSZ + LSS Data KSZ traces the large-scale distribution of electrons. Cross-correlations measure the relationship between the large-scale distribution of electrons and the distribution of galaxies Two examples: – Spectroscopic data + CMB (SDSSIII + ACTPOL): Schaan et al. (2016) – Imaging data + CMB (WISE + Planck): Hill et al. (2016)

30 Schaan, Ferraro et al. (2016)

31 Hill et al. 1603.01608 WISE galaxies x Planck Temperature

32 Conclusions Lots of exciting data in the coming decade – WFIRST – Simons Observatory Exciting Opportunities to use this data to learn about the large scale distribution of electrons, pressure, galaxies and matter. These observations will enable a deeper understanding of important questions in cosmology.
