About the project
Cosmoglobe will integrate the world’s best data from radio to sub-mm wavelengths into a single global model. Cosmoglobe will extend the current global model by
- one order of magnitude in polarization sensitivity
- three orders of magnitude in frequency
- a factor of five in angular resolution
- introducing three new cosmological components (high-redshift CO, CIB and SZ)
- adding one new astrophysical component (zodical light emission)
- integrating at least 11 new observational data sets
- supporting three-dimensional data sets
Scientific objectives
- Combine with SPIDER to constrain primordial gravitational waves
- Combine with PASIPHAE to get 3D maps of the magnetic field in the Milky Way
- Combine with COMAP to get 3D maps of CO intensity at high redshifts
- Cosmoglobe will be used for foreground modelling and forecasting for future experiments like LiteBIRD
Financing
Cosmoglobe is funded by an ERC Consolidator grant.
