The measurement of a primordial non-gaussian signal in the CMB temperature distribution is the best way to discriminate between different inflationary model. We develop a scale dependent factorizable form for the CMB bispectra, and a complete set of analytical tools to compute scale dependent bispectra and perform analysis and forecast for the non-gaussian amplitude parameter fNL and for the running parameter nNG.

Abstract

The measurement of a primordial non-gaussian signal in the CMB temperature distribution is the best way to discriminate between different inflationary model. We develop a scale dependent factorizable form for the CMB bispectra, and a complete set of analytical tools to compute scale dependent bispectra and perform analysis and forecast for the non-gaussian amplitude parameter fNL and for the running parameter nNG.
