    Abstract

    Systematic effects can hinder the sought-after detection of primordial gravitational waves, impacting the reconstruction of the B -mode polarization signal which they generate in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In this work, we study the impact of an imperfect knowledge of the instrument bandpasses on the estimate of the tensor-to-scalar ratio r in the context of the next-generation LiteBIRD satellite. We develop a pipeline to integrate over the bandpass transmission in both the time-ordered data (TOD) and the map-making processing steps. We introduce the systematic effect by having a mismatch between the “real”, high resolution bandpass τ , entering the TOD, and the estimated one τ s , used in the map-making. We focus on two aspects: the effect of degrading the τ s resolution, and the addition of a Gaussian error σ to τ s . To reduce the computational load of the analysis, the two effects are explored separately, for three representative LiteBIRD channels (40 GHz, 140 GHz and 402 GHz) and for three bandpass shapes. Computing the amount of bias on r , Δ r , caused by these effects on a single channel, we find that a resolution ≲ 1.5 GHz and σ ≲ 0.0089 do not exceed the LiteBIRD budget allocation per systematic effect, Δ r < 6.5 × 10 -6 . We then check that propagating separately the uncertainties due to a resolution of 1 GHz and a measurement error with σ = 0.0089 in all LiteBIRD frequency channels, for the most pessimistic bandpass shape of the three considered, still produces a Δ r < 6.5 × 10 -6 . This is done both with the simple deprojection approach and with a blind component separation technique, the Needlet Internal Linear Combination (NILC). Due to the effectiveness of NILC in cleaning the systematic residuals, we have tested that the requirement on σ can be relaxed to σ ≲ 0.05.

    Abstract

    We report the experimental characterization of the rotational instability of a cryogenic rotation mechanism, which uses a superconducting magnetic bearing (SMB) and a synchronous motor and operates at about 10 K in a vacuum environment. We conducted rotation tests: driving the rotor and reconstructing the rotational frequency of the rotor. We identified the rotational frequency oscillations and the damping of its amplitude around the target rotational frequency set by the motor drive electronics. The amplitude of the oscillation of about 0.005 Hz at the rotational frequency of 0.77 Hz with the damping coefficient of about 0.02 s−1. We compared this damping coefficient to the energy loss by the rotational frequency spin down without any driving torque. We found that the two damping coefficients agree within a factor of two. Based on the analysis, we narrowed down the cause of the oscillation to the low-torque/low-friction rotation mechanism together with the high-purity copper wires used in drive motor coils as the source of eddy current.

    Abstract

    LiteBIRD, the Lite (Light) satellite for the study of B-mode polarization and Inflation from cosmic background Radiation Detection, is a space mission for primordial cosmology and fundamental physics. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) selected LiteBIRD in May 2019 as a strategic large-class (L-class) mission, with an expected launch in the late 2020s using JAXA’s H3 rocket. LiteBIRD is planned to orbit the Sun–Earth Lagrangian point L2, where it will map the cosmic microwave background polarization over the entire sky for three years, with three telescopes in 15 frequency bands between 34 and 448 GHz, to achieve an unprecedented total sensitivity of $2.2\, \mu$K-arcmin, with a typical angular resolution of 0.5○ at 100 GHz. The primary scientific objective of LiteBIRD is to search for the signal from cosmic inflation, either making a discovery or ruling out well-motivated inflationary models. The measurements of LiteBIRD will also provide us with insight into the quantum nature of gravity and other new physics beyond the standard models of particle physics and cosmology. We provide an overview of the LiteBIRD project, including scientific objectives, mission and system requirements, operation concept, spacecraft and payload module design, expected scientific outcomes, potential design extensions, and synergies with other projects.

    LiteBIRD, the Lite (Light) satellite for the study of B-mode polarization and Inflation from cosmic background Radiation Detection, is a space mission for primordial cosmology and fundamental physics. JAXA selected LiteBIRD in May 2019 as a strategic large-class (L-class) mission, with its expected launch in the late 2020s using JAXA's H3 rocket. LiteBIRD plans to map the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization over the full sky with unprecedented precision. Its main scientific objective is to carry out a definitive search for the signal from cosmic inflation, either making a discovery or ruling out well-motivated inflationary models. The measurements of LiteBIRD will also provide us with an insight into the quantum nature of gravity and other new physics beyond the standard models of particle physics and cosmology. To this end, LiteBIRD will perform full-sky surveys for three years at the Sun-Earth Lagrangian point L2 for 15 frequency bands between 34 and 448 GHz with three telescopes, to achieve a total sensitivity of 2.16 micro K-arcmin with a typical angular resolution of 0.5 deg. at 100GHz. We provide an overview of the LiteBIRD project, including scientific objectives, mission requirements, top-level system requirements, operation concept, and expected scientific outcomes.

    LiteBIRD has been selected as JAXA's strategic large mission in the 2020s, to observe the cosmic microwave background (CMB) $B$-mode polarization over the full sky at large angular scales. The challenges of LiteBIRD are the wide field-of-view (FoV) and broadband capabilities of millimeter-wave polarization measurements, which are derived from the system requirements. The possible paths of stray light increase with a wider FoV and the far sidelobe knowledge of $-56$ dB is a challenging optical requirement. A crossed-Dragone configuration was chosen for the low frequency telescope (LFT : 34--161 GHz), one of LiteBIRD's onboard telescopes. It has a wide field-of-view ($18^\circ \times 9^\circ$) with an aperture of 400 mm in diameter, corresponding to an angular resolution of about 30 arcminutes around 100 GHz. The focal ratio f/3.0 and the crossing angle of the optical axes of 90$^\circ$ are chosen after an extensive study of the stray light. The primary and secondary reflectors have rectangular shapes with serrations to reduce the diffraction pattern from the edges of the mirrors. The reflectors and structure are made of aluminum to proportionally contract from warm down to the operating temperature at $5\,$K. A 1/4 scaled model of the LFT has been developed to validate the wide field-of-view design and to demonstrate the reduced far sidelobes. A polarization modulation unit (PMU), realized with a half-wave plate (HWP) is placed in front of the aperture stop, the entrance pupil of this system. A large focal plane with approximately 1000 AlMn TES detectors and frequency multiplexing SQUID amplifiers is cooled to 100 mK. The lens and sinuous antennas have broadband capability. Performance specifications of the LFT and an outline of the proposed verification plan are presented.

    LiteBIRD is a JAXA-led Strategic Large-Class mission designed to search for the existence of the primordial gravitational waves produced during the inflationary phase of the Universe, through the measurements of their imprint onto the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). These measurements, requiring unprecedented sensitivity, will be performed over the full sky, at large angular scales, and over 15 frequency bands from 34GHz to 448GHz. The LiteBIRD instruments consist of three telescopes, namely the Low-, Medium- and High-Frequency Telescope (respectively LFT, MFT and HFT). We present in this paper an overview of the design of the Medium-Frequency Telescope (89-224GHz) and the High-Frequency Telescope (166-448GHz), the so-called MHFT, under European responsibility, which are two cryogenic refractive telescopes cooled down to 5K. They include a continuous rotating half-wave plate as the first optical element, two high-density polyethylene (HDPE) lenses and more than three thousand transition-edge sensor (TES) detectors cooled to 100mK. We provide an overview of the concept design and the remaining specific challenges that we have to face in order to achieve the scientific goals of LiteBIRD.

    インフレーション仮説の検証に向けた広帯域偏光変調器の開発において、超短パルスレーザー加工を用いて作製されたモスアイ構造を波長板に施し、広帯域で機能する波長板を開発した。本年度は広帯域波長板として異なる2つの設計に対して感度の見積りを行った結果をまとめ、国際学会Low Temperature Detectorへ発表した。同時にその結果をJournal of Low Temperature Physicsへと投稿した。また、インフレーション検証を目指した衛星計画LiteBIRDの全体Face to face meetingへと参加し、現行する偏光変調器開発の全体進捗をポスターにまとめて共有した。その上で、波長板だけでなく波長板を回転させるための回転機構の低温試験もリードし、偏光変調器開発チームの中心を担った。実際の回転機構の冷却試験では、目的の周波数を十分な時間で維持できることを確認した。
    本研究において超短パルスレーザー加工を用いたモスアイ構造の作製手法の開発により、世界最高帯域での観測を要求するLiteBIRD低周波望遠鏡でも十分に機能するほど広帯域な半波長板の開発に成功しただけでなく、その波長板を実際の望遠鏡に施した場合の感度の見積もりがideal case(反射や吸収による効率の低下がない場合)と十分に差異がないことを示した。また、得られた感度をインプットとして前景放射の効果も含めたテンソル・スカラー比の見積もりも統計的にideal caseと十分に差異がないことも示した。現在は系統誤差を含めた波長板の作製・評価、そして実機サイズを実際に加工するべく調整を進めている。
