The White Mountain Polarimeter Telescope and an Upper Limit on CMB Polarization
Alan R. Levy, Rodrigo Leonardi, Markus Ansmann +18
The White Mountain Polarimeter (WMPol) is a dedicated ground-based microwave telescope and receiver system for observing polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background. WMPol is l…
The Cosmic Foreground Explorer (COFE): A balloon-borne microwave polarimeter to characterize polarized foregrounds
Rodrigo Leonardi, Brian Williams, Marco Bersanelli +8
The COsmic Foreground Explorer (COFE) is a balloon-borne microwave polarime- ter designed to measure the low-frequency and low-l characteristics of dominant diffuse polarized foreg…
Deviation from Gaussianity in the cosmic microwave background temperature fluctuations
Armando Bernui, Constantino Tsallis, Thyrso Villela
Recent measurements of the temperature fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation from the WMAP satellite provide indication of a non-Gaussian behavior. Althou…
On the CMB large-scales angular correlations
Armando Bernui, Thyrso Villela, Carlos A. Wuensche +2
We study the large-scale angular correlation signatures of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature fluctuations from WMAP data in several spherical cap regions of the cel…
Temperature Fluctuations of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation: A Case of Nonextensivity?
Armando Bernui, Constantino Tsallis, Thyrso Villela
Temperature maps of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation, as those obtained by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP), provide one of the most precise data sets…
A method to search for topological signatures in the angular distribution of cosmic objects
Armando Bernui, Thyrso Villela
We present a method to search for large angular-scale correlations, termed topological signatures, in the angular distribution of cosmic objects, which does not depend on cosmologi…
