Maps of Dust Infrared Emission for Use in Estimation of Reddening and Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Foregrounds

open access: yes, 1998
We present a full-sky 100 μm map that is a reprocessed composite of the COBE/DIRBE and IRAS/ISSA maps, with the zodiacal foreground and confirmed point sources removed.

POLAR: Instrument and Results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We describe the design, performance, and results of a polarimeter used to make precision measurements of the 2.7 K cosmic microwave background. In the Spring of 2000 the instrument searched for polarized emission in three microwave frequency bands ...

Mitigating Cosmic Microwave Background Shadow Degradation of Tensor-to-scalar Ratio Measurements through Map-based Studies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
It has been pointed out that the spurious cosmic microwave background (CMB) B -mode polarization signals caused by the absorption of the CMB monopole component due to the Galactic interstellar matter, called the CMB shadow, degrade the accuracy of ...

A New Measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Temperature at z = 1.97 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We present detections of absorption from the ground state and excited states of C I in the z = 1.9731 damped Lyα system of the QSO 0013-004. The excitation temperature between the J = 0 and J = 1 fine-structure levels of C I is 11.6 ± 1.0 K.

The Cosmic Microwave Background [PDF]

open access: yesAnnalesHenriPoincare4:S275-S290,2003, 2002
I review the discovery of the temperature fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background radiation. The underlying theory and the implications for cosmology are reviewed, and I describe the prospects for future progress.

Non-Critical Liouville String Escapes Constraints on Generic Models of Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
It has recently been pointed out that generic models of quantum gravity must contend with severe phenomenological constraints imposed by gravitational Cerenkov radiation, neutrino oscillations and the cosmic microwave background radiation.

Delensing of Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization with Machine Learning

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Primordial B -mode detection is one of the main goals of next-generation cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments. Primordial B -modes are a unique signature of primordial gravitational waves (PGWs).

A Cross-internal Linear Combination Approach to Probe the Secondary CMB Anisotropies: Kinematic Sunyaev–Zel’dovich Effect and CMB Lensing

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We propose a cross-internal linear combination (cross-ILC) approach to measure the small-scale cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies robustly against the contamination from astrophysical signals.

From primordial quantum fluctuations to the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background radiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
These lecture notes cover mainly three connected topics. In the first part we give a detailed treatment of cosmological perturbation theory. The second part is devoted to cosmological inflation and the generation of primordial fluctuations. In part three
