Description
Over the past two decades, it has been increasingly clear that cosmological observations are homing on to a concordance ‘standard' model
of Cosmology model with increasingly precise determination of cosmological parameters. The observations of cosmic microwave background (CMB), most recently, the exquisite ESA Planck measurements have not only spearheaded this transition, but also allow critical cross-checks of the underlying paradigm of early universe, and the origin and growth of structures.
In the decades ahead, attention would focus on the 90% of the polarisation information, and a practically untouched spectral information, of high value for Cosmology and High Energy Physics that remain to be mapped out with a more capable next generation CMB space mission.
