Non-Gaussianity in the Very Small Array CMB maps with Smooth-Goodness-of-fit tests
Jose Alberto Rubino-Martin, Antonio M. Aliaga, R. B. Barreiro +31
(Abridged) We have used the Rayner & Best (1989) smooth tests of goodness-of-fit to study the Gaussianity of the Very Small Array (VSA) data. Out of the 41 published VSA individual…
Cosmological parameter estimation using Very Small Array data out to l=1500
Rafael Rebolo, Richard A. Battye, Pedro Carreira +29
We estimate cosmological parameters using data obtained by the Very Small Array (VSA) in its extended configuration, in conjunction with a variety of other CMB data and external pr…
High sensitivity measurements of the CMB power spectrum with the extended Very Small Array
Clive Dickinson, Richard A. Battye, Kieran Cleary +29
We present deep Ka-band ( GHz) observations of the CMB made with the extended Very Small Array (VSA). This configuration produces a naturally weighted synthesized FWHM…
Estimating the bispectrum of the Very Small Array data
Sarah Smith, Graca Rocha, Anthony Challinor +30
We estimate the bispectrum of the Very Small Array data from the compact and extended configuration observations released in December 2002, and compare our results to those obtaine…
Searching for non-Gaussianity in the VSA data
Richard Savage, Richard A. Battye, Pedro Carreira +28
We have tested Very Small Array (VSA) observations of three regions of sky for the presence of non-Gaussianity, using high-order cumulants, Minkowski functionals, a wavelet-based t…
Cosmological parameter estimation and Bayesian model comparison using VSA data
Anze Slosar, Pedro Carreira, Kieran Cleary +28
We constrain the basic comological parameters using the first observations by the Very Small Array (VSA) in its extended configuration, together with existing cosmic microwave back…
The CMB power spectrum out to l=1400 measured by the VSA
Keith Grainge, Pedro Carreira, Kieran Cleary +28
We have observed the cosmic microwave background (CMB) in three regions of sky using the Very Small Array (VSA) in an extended configuration with antennas of beamwidth 2 degrees at…
First results from the Very Small Array -- II. Observations of the CMB
Angela C. Taylor, Pedro Carreira, Kieran Cleary +24
We have observed the cosmic microwave background temperature fluctuations in eight fields covering three separated areas of sky with the Very Small Array at 34 GHz. A total area of…
First results from the Very Small Array -- III. The CMB power spectrum
Paul F. Scott, Pedro Carreira, Kieran Cleary +23
We present the power spectrum of the fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background detected by the Very Small Array (VSA) in its first season of observations in its compact confi…
First results from the Very Small Array -- I. Observational methods
Robert A. Watson, Pedro Carreira, Kieran Cleary +23
The Very Small Array (VSA) is a synthesis telescope designed to image faint structures in the cosmic microwave background on degree and sub-degree angular scales. The VSA has key d…
First results from the Very Small Array -- IV. Cosmological parameter estimation
Jose Alberto Rubino-Martin, Rafael Rebolo, Pedro Carreira +24
We investigate the constraints on basic cosmological parameters set by the first compact-configuration observations of the Very Small Array (VSA), and other cosmological data sets,…
