Tilted Physics: A Cosmologically Dipole-Modulated Sky

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

Physical constants and cosmological parameters could vary with position. On the largest scales such variations would manifest themselves as gradients across our Hubble volume, leading to dipole-modulation of the cosmic microwave anisotropies. This generically leads to a correlation between adjacent multipoles in the spherical harmonics expansion of the sky, a distinctive signal which should be searched for in future data sets.
