The CMB polarization: status and prospects
Amedeo Balbi, Paolo Natoli, Nicola Vittorio
Abstract
The study of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization is still in a pioneering stage, but promises to bring a huge advancement in cosmology in the near future, just as high-accuracy observations of the anisotropies in the total intensity of the CMB revolutionized our understanding of the universe in the past few years. In this contribution, we outline the scientific case for observing CMB polarization, and review the current observational status and future experimental prospects in the field.
