Separate constraints on early and late cosmology

Benjamin Audren

Since the public release of Planck data, several attempts have been made to explain the observed small tensions with other data sets, most of them involving an extension of the Lambda cold dark matter (Lambda CDM) model. We try here an alternative approach ...

Planck 2013 results. I. Overview of products and scientific results

Xin Chen, Julien Lesgourgues, Jason Douglas McEwen, Slobodan Ilic, Ji Hyun Kim, Fabio Finelli, Jan Hamann

The European Space Agency's Planck satellite, dedicated to studying the early Universe and its subsequent evolution, was launched 14 May 2009 and has been scanning the microwave and submillimetre sky continuously since 12 August 2009. In March 2013, ESA an ...

Planck 2013 results. V. LFI calibration

Xin Chen, Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

We discuss the methods employed to photometrically calibrate the data acquired by the Low Frequency Instrument on Planck. Our calibration is based on a combination of the orbital dipole plus the solar dipole, caused respectively by the motion of the Planck ...

Effects of cosmic strings with delayed scaling on CMB anisotropy

Kohei Kamada

The network of cosmic strings generated in a phase transition during inflation enters the scaling regime later than that of usual strings. If it occurs after the recombination, temperature anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at high multi ...

Conservative constraints on early cosmology with MONTE PYTHON

Julien Lesgourgues, Benjamin Audren

Models for the latest stages of the cosmological evolution rely on a less solid theoretical and observational ground than the description of earlier stages like BBN and recombination. As suggested in a previous work by Vonlanthen et al., it is possible to ...

Cosmological constraints on Lorentz violating dark energy

Julien Lesgourgues, Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Benjamin Audren

The role of Lorentz invariance as a fundamental symmetry of nature has been lately reconsidered in different approaches to quantum gravity. It is thus natural to study whether other puzzles of physics may be solved within these proposals. This may be the c ...

Two Accurate Time-Delay Distances From Strong Lensing: Implications For Cosmology

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes

Strong gravitational lenses with measured time delays between the multiple images and models of the lens mass distribution allow a one-step determination of the time-delay distance, and thus a measure of cosmological parameters. We present a blind analysis ...

Low-l CMB analysis and inpainting

Jean-Luc Starck, Anaïs Marie Rassat

Reconstructing the cosmic microwave background (CMB) in the Galactic plane is extremely difficult due to the dominant foreground emissions such as dust, free-free or synchrotron. For cosmological studies, the standard approach consists in masking this area ...

Sparsity and the Bayesian perspective

Jean-Luc Starck, Anaïs Marie Rassat

Sparsity has recently been introduced in cosmology for weak-lensing and cosmic microwave background (CMB) data analysis for different applications such as denoising, component separation, or inpainting (i.e., filling the missing data or the mask). Although ...

Cosmological lepton asymmetry with a nonzero mixing angle theta(13)

Julien Lesgourgues

While the baryon asymmetry of the Universe is nowadays well measured by cosmological observations, the bounds on the lepton asymmetry in the form of neutrinos are still significantly weaker. We place limits on the relic neutrino asymmetries using some of t ...
