Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I have investigated the possibility of probing the physics of early Universe from future planned cosmological observations. As a result, I have found that from the bunch of future cosmological observations we could obtain new and precise information about the physics of the early Universe, in particular, inflation. As another important research result, I and collaborators open new research fields for the physics of the early Universe through the primordial black boles, by pointing out the possible detection of the primordial black holes as a source of the gravitational waves detected by LIGO/VIRGO collaboration.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
上記本研究で得られた結果により、2020年代の精密宇宙論的観測を通じて超高温高密度状態であったと考えられる初期宇宙の様子がより明らかになっていくことが期待される。つまり、地上実験では到底到達不可能なエネルギー状態における物理学の検証につながると考えられる。現在の物理学の基礎となっている素粒子標準模型や一般相対性理論がそのような高エネルギー状態で適用可能かどうかについての重要な知見が得られると考えられ、真の物理理論は何かという問いに迫るという意味で学術的に重要である。
