* ABSTRACT | |||||||
The cosmic microwave background radiation provides a unique probe of the conditions in the universe when it was between 1000 and 1 billion years old. Was the universe completely dominated by radiation, then by matter? Were there extra relativistic degrees of freedom? Was there early dark energy? Could dark matter and dark energy have been coupled? We can use CMB data to probe many areas of physics beyond the standard model. |
