Combining galaxy and 21cm surveys

J. D. Cohn, Martin White, Tzu-Ching Chang +3

Acoustic waves traveling through the early Universe imprint a characteristic scale in the clustering of galaxies, QSOs and inter-galactic gas. This scale can be used as a standard…

Robust forecasts on fundamental physics from the foreground-obscured, gravitationally-lensed CMB polarization

Josquin Errard, Stephen M. Feeney, Hiranya V. Peiris +1

[Abridged] Recent results from the BICEP, Keck Array and Planck Collaborations demonstrate that Galactic foregrounds are an unavoidable obstacle in the search for evidence of infla…

Dark matter implications of the WMAP-Planck Haze

Andrey E. Egorov, Jennifer M. Gaskins, Elena Pierpaoli +1

Gamma rays and microwave observations of the Galactic Center and surrounding areas indicate the presence of anomalous emission, whose origin remains ambiguous. The possibility of d…

POLARBEAR Constraints on Cosmic Birefringence and Primordial Magnetic Fields

POLARBEAR Collaboration, Peter A. R. Ade, Kam Arnold +84

We constrain anisotropic cosmic birefringence using four-point correlations of even-parity -mode and odd-parity -mode polarization in the cosmic microwave background measurem…

Planck 2013 results. XXXI. Consistency of the Planck data

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, M. Arnaud +180

The Planck design and scanning strategy provide many levels of redundancy that can be exploited to provide tests of internal consistency. One of the most important is the compariso…

Dark matter line emission constraints from NuSTAR observations of the Bullet Cluster

S. Riemer-Sørensen, D. Wik, G. Madejski +10

Line emission from dark matter is well motivated for some candidates e.g. sterile neutrinos. We present the first search for dark matter line emission in the 3-80keV range in a poi…
