Certain anomalies in the CMB bring out a tension between the six-parameter flat ΛCDM model and the CMB data. We revisit the PLANCK analysis with loop quantum cosmology (LQC) predictions and show that LQC alleviates both the large-scale power anomaly and the tension in the lensing amplitude. These differences arise because, in LQC, the primordial power spectrum is scale dependent for small k, with a specific power suppression. We conclude with a prediction of larger optical depth and power suppression in the B-mode polarization power spectrum on large scales.
宇宙微波背景(CMB)中的某些异常现象揭示了六参数平坦Λ冷暗物质(ΛCDM)模型与CMB数据之间的矛盾。我们利用圈量子宇宙学(LQC)的预测结果重新审视了普朗克卫星的分析数据,结果表明LQC能够缓解大尺度功率异常以及透镜振幅方面的矛盾。这些差异的出现是因为,在LQC中,原初功率谱对于小尺度波数k是尺度依赖的,并且存在特定的功率抑制。我们最后预测,在大尺度上,B模式偏振功率谱将有更大的光学深度和功率抑制。
