Planck 2013 results. XXVI. Background geometry and topology of the Universe

Julien Lesgourgues, Jason Douglas McEwen, Fabio Finelli

The new cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps from Planck provide the highest-quality full-sky view of the surface of last scattering available to date. This allows us to detect possible departures from the standard model of a globally homogen ...

Planck 2013 results. XVI. Cosmological parameters

Xin Chen, Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli, Jan Hamann

This paper presents the first cosmological results based on Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and lensing-potential power spectra. We find that the Planck spectra at high multipoles (l greater than or similar to 40) a ...

Fast and accurate CMB computations in non-flat FLRW universes

Julien Lesgourgues

We present a new method for calculating CMB anisotropies in a non-flat Friedmann universe, relying on a very stable algorithm for the calculation of hyperspherical Bessel functions, that can be pushed to arbitrary precision levels. We also introduce a new ...

LFI systematic uncertainties

Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

We present the current estimate of instrumental and systematic effect uncertainties for the Planck-Low Frequency Instrument relevant to the first release of the Planck cosmological results. We give an overview of the main effects and of the tools and metho ...

Planck 2013 results. VIII. HFI photometric calibration and mapmaking

Xin Chen, Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

This paper describes the methods used to produce photometrically calibrated maps from the Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) cleaned, time-ordered information. HFI observes the sky over a broad range of frequencies, from 100 to 857 GHz. To obtain the b ...

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 ...

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 ...

Optimal polarisation equations in FLRW universes

Julien Lesgourgues

This paper presents the linearised Boltzmann equation for photons for scalar, vector and tensor perturbations in flat, open and closed FLRW cosmologies. We show that E- and B-mode polarisation for all types can be computed using only a single hierarchy. Th ...

A naturally light dilaton

Riccardo Rattazzi, Duccio Pappadopulo, Paolo Lodone, Lorenzo Vitale

Goldstone's theorem does not apply straightforwardly to the case of spontaneously broken scale invariance. We elucidate under what conditions a light scalar degree of freedom, identifiable with the dilaton, can naturally arise. Our construction can be cons ...

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 ...
