TE
• Density (scalar) perturbations generate only E mode polarization.
E-mode ¼ 5 --10 K
Gravitational waves generate both the modes in comparable amounts .
B-mode ¼ 0.05 – 0.1 K
B-mode measures cosmic gravity wave background.
CMB Polarization
Thompson scattering of the CMB anisotropy quadrupole at the surface of last scattering generates a linear polarization pattern in the CMB.

Polarization: E modes and B modesE Modes: Gradient of the polarization Produced by both scalar and
tensor modes Have been detected
B Modes: Curl of the polarization Produced only by tensor modes ...or gravitational lensing ...or foregrounds ...or systematics Expected from inflation Have not been detected
A detection of primordial sourced B modes would provideimportant evidence for, and determine the energy scale of Inflation

Breaking Scale Invariance of spectra
Two distinct approaches:
1. Vary H during inflation
Changes both scalar & tensor spectra
2. Vary effective mass
Changes only scalar spectra
