Generation of CMB B-mode Polarization from Circular Polarization

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this work we consider non-zero circular polarization for the CMB radiation as a result of new interactions. We then rewrite the Boltzmann equations for the Stokes parameters QQ, UU and VV and show that the circular polarization can generate the B-mode polarization even if no tensor perturbations are present.
