We present the full set of power spectra of cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization anisotropies due to the coupling between quintessence and pseudoscalar of electromagnetism. This coupling induces the rotation of the polarization plane of CMB photons, thus resulting in non-vanishing B mode and parity-violating TB and EB modes. Using the 2003 flight of BOOMERANG (B03) data, we give the most stringent constraint on the coupling strength. In some cases, the rotation-induced B mode can confuse the hunting for the gravitational lensing induced B mode.

  1. Spinoptics in the presence of axion-like particles in curved spacetime

    gr-qc 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    Spinoptics equations for axion–Maxwell theory yield helicity-dependent photon trajectory corrections from both spacetime curvature and arbitrary axion profiles.

  2. Planck constraints on the scale dependence of isotropic cosmic birefringence

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Planck polarization data favor a constant cosmic birefringence angle (β≈0.3°) across multipoles, with scale dependence consistent with zero at up to 1.8σ.

  3. Probing String-Theory-Inspired Topologies of the Early Universe through CMB Temperature and Polarization Anisotropies

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    Reexamination of Planck CMB data finds a possible spatial-parity-breaking signal consistent with six extra dimensions compactified toroidally at the GUT scale before inflation.

  4. The Hubble Tension and Early Dark Energy

    astro-ph.CO 2022-11 unverdicted novelty 2.0 of 10

    The Hubble tension between local and early-universe expansion-rate measurements may be resolved by early dark energy that speeds up expansion before recombination while satisfying existing constraints.
