Abstract

In this work, we investigate how the anisotropy affects the cosmological parameters estimation. Here the anisotropy is incorporated as a small gravitational disturbance. We calculate the Fisher information for both cosmological parameters ϵ\epsilon (expansion volume) and ρ\rho (expansion rate), and we show that the anisotropy introduces oscillations in the Fisher information spectrum. This implies that the estimation of the cosmological parameters is sensible to the direction of the momentum kk of particles. In addition, we observe that for small values of the momentum kk there is a substantial difference between the Fisher information spectrum for the minimum and conformal couplings.
