Future CMB ISW-Lensing bispectrum constraints on modified gravity in the Parameterized Post-Friedmann formalism (1211.5032v2)

Published 21 Nov 2012 in astro-ph.CO

Abstract: We forecast the constraints on both Hu-Sawicki model and Bertschinger-Zukin model of modified gravity within the Parameterized Post-Friedmann (PPF) formalism for the Planck satellite experiment by performing the joint analysis of ISW-Lensing bispectrum and CMB power spectrum. We find that, even considering the temperature-temperature mode of CMB power spectrum only, Planck data are expected to reduce the error bars on the modified gravity parameter $B_0$ (related to the present value of Compton wavelength of the extra scalar degree of freedom) at least one order magnitude compared with WMAP. The spectrum-bispectrum joint analysis can further improve the results by a factor ranging from 1.14 to 5.32 depending on the specific modified gravity model. One of our main results is that the cross-correlation between ISW-Lensing bispectrum and power spectrum can be safely neglected when performing the joint analysis. For simplicity, we only investigate the likelihood of one parameter ({$B_0$}) and fix all other cosmological parameters to their best-fit values in WMAP7yr results.
