Exploring the cosmic microwave background as a composition of signals with Kolmogorov analysis

Abstract
The problem of separation of different signals in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation using the difference in their statistics is analyzed. Considering samples of sequences which model the CMB as a superposition of signals, we show how the Kolmogorov stochasticity parameter acts as a relevant descriptor, either qualitatively or quantitatively, to distinguish the statistical properties of the cosmological and secondary signals.
