Talk

LiteBIRD, the Lite (Light) spacecraft for the study of B-mode polarization and Inflation from cosmic background Radiation Detection, is a JAXA-led space mission for primordial cosmology and fundamental physics. LiteBIRD is planned to orbit the Sun–Earth Lagrangian point L2, where it will map the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization over the entire sky for three years. The primary...
