Description

"According to standard cosmology, near the last scattering surface, the CMB photons scattered via Compton scattering predict that cosmological scalar perturbations at linear order
are not able to source B polarization modes. In this work, we investigate the possibility that such CMB polarization modes
are generated even in the presence of linear scalar perturbations by considering the Lorentz-violating operators in the Standard Model
Extension (SME). Our
results provide a useful tool to constrain new physics using CMB data."
