Abstract:

A central question in cosmology is to understand the inflation process. While primordial fluctuations are considered quantum in origin, the observed cosmic microwave background anisotropy is so far well described by classical Gaussian field. What would be the observables of quantum correlations? Can quantum optics and quantum simulation offer hints on the emergence of non-Gaussianity and unitarity of the inflation dynamics?

 

Timbits, coffee, tea will be served in STI A before the colloquium.
