Cosmology from Cross-Correlation of ACT-DR4 CMB Lensing and DES-Y3 Cosmic Shear

S. Shaikh, I. Harrison, A. van Engelen +105

Cross-correlation between weak lensing of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and weak lensing of galaxies offers a way to place robust constraints on cosmological and astrophysi…

Generation of near-equipartition magnetic fields in turbulent collisionless plasmas

L. Sironi, L. Comisso, R. Golant

The mechanisms that generate "seed" magnetic fields in our Universe and that amplify them throughout cosmic time remain poorly understood. By means of fully-kinetic particle-in-cel…

The Kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect with ACT, DES, and BOSS: a Novel Hybrid Estimator

M. Mallaby-Kay, S. Amodeo, J. C. Hill +80

The kinematic and thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ and tSZ) effects probe the abundance and thermodynamics of ionized gas in galaxies and clusters. We present a new hybrid estimator…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Mitigating the impact of extragalactic foregrounds for the DR6 CMB lensing analysis

Niall MacCrann, Blake D. Sherwin, Frank J. Qu +47

We investigate the impact and mitigation of extragalactic foregrounds for the CMB lensing power spectrum analysis of Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) data release 6 (DR6) data. Tw…

The impact of halo concentration on the Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect signal from massive galaxy clusters

Eric J. Baxter, Shivam Pandey, Susmita Adhikari +4

The Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) effect is sensitive to the pressure of ionized gas inside galaxy clusters, which is in turn controlled largely by the gravitational potential of the clu…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR6 Gravitational Lensing Map and Cosmological Parameters

Mathew S. Madhavacheril, Frank J. Qu, Blake D. Sherwin +156

We present cosmological constraints from a gravitational lensing mass map covering 9400 sq. deg. reconstructed from CMB measurements made by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) f…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: A Measurement of the DR6 CMB Lensing Power Spectrum and its Implications for Structure Growth

Frank J. Qu, Blake D. Sherwin, Mathew S. Madhavacheril +155

We present new measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing over sq. deg. of the sky. These lensing measurements are derived from the Atacama Cosmology Telescop…

Systematic error mitigation for the PIXIE Fourier transform spectrometer

A. Kogut, Dale Fixsen, Nabila Aghanim +11

The Primordial Inflation Explorer (PIXIE) is an Explorer-class mission concept to measure the spectrum and polarization of the cosmic microwave background. Cosmological signals are…

Cosmological Structure Formation and Soliton Phase Transition in Fuzzy Dark Matter with Axion Self-Interactions

Philip Mocz, Anastasia Fialkov, Mark Vogelsberger +11

We investigate cosmological structure formation in Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM) with an attractive self-interaction (SI) with numerical simulations. Such a SI would arise if the FDM bos…
