アブストラクト: The BICEP2 team has just announced the detection of
degree-scale B-mode polarization of the CMB, consistent with the
imprint of inflationary gravitational waves. r=0 model is ruled out at
very high significance. BICEP2 is the second generation in the
BICEP/Keck series of small refractor experiments. I will discuss the
immediate prospect of confirming and expanding BICEP2's discovery by
Keck Array and BICEP3. A dedicated program that covers more sky can
significantly reduce the uncertainties on tensor amplitude, putting
models of inflation to further test.
