  • 30.10.2020, Angelo Ricciardione (INFN Padua): Characterization of Cosmological Gravitational Waves with the LISA Detector
    Abstract:   Primordial Gravitational Waves (GWs) represent a key test of inflation and they are a unique tool to explore the physics and the microphysics of the early Universe. After the GW detections by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration the next target of modern cosmology is the detection of stochastic background of GWs. Even if the main probe of primordial GWs is the Cosmic Microwave Background, we will see in this talk how we can extract information about primordial GWs at smaller scale. In particular the space based LISA interferometer, in addiction to detection and characterization of GWs of astrophysical origin, will give compelling information about the cosmological background of GWs. In this talk I will summarise part of the activity developed within the LISA Cosmology working group, and, in particular, I will discuss on the ability of LISA to test primordial well motivated model of inflation and I will discuss about peculiar features of the SGWB, like anisotropy and non-Gaussianity.
