The Quest for Microwave Foreground X
Angelica de Oliveira-Costa, Max Tegmark, R. D. Davies +4
The WMAP team has produced a foreground map that can account for most of the low-frequency Galactic microwave emission in the WMAP maps, tentatively interpreting it as synchrotron…
Maps of the millimetre sky from the BOOMERanG experiment
P. de Bernardis, P. A. R. Ade, A. Balbi +38
In the 1998-99 flight, BOOMERanG has produced maps of of the sky at high Galactic latitudes, at frequencies of 90, 150, 240 and 410 GHz, with resolution $\simgt 10'$. Th…
The 3D power spectrum of galaxies from the SDSS
M Tegmark, M Blanton, M Strauss +32
We measure the large-scale real-space power spectrum P(k) using a sample of 205,443 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, covering 2417 square degrees with mean redshift z~0.…
A Map of the Universe
J. Richard Gott, Mario Jurić, David Schlegel +5
We have produced a new conformal map of the universe illustrating recent discoveries, ranging from Kuiper belt objects in the Solar system, to the galaxies and quasars from the Slo…
Physical Evidence for Dark Energy
R. Scranton, A. J. Connolly, R. C. Nichol +17
We present measurements of the angular cross-correlation between luminous red galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the cosmic microwave background temperature maps from t…
The significance of the largest scale CMB fluctuations in WMAP
Angelica de Oliveira-Costa, Max Tegmark, Matias Zaldarriaga +1
We investigate anomalies reported in the Cosmic Microwave Background maps from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) satellite on very large angular scales and discuss po…
Angular Clustering with Photometric Redshifts in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Bimodality in the Clustering Properties of Galaxies
Tamas Budavari, Andrew J. Connolly, Alexander S. Szalay +18
Understanding the clustering of galaxies has long been a goal of modern observational cosmology. Utilizing our photometric redshift technique a volume limited sample containing mor…
The First Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
The SDSS collaboration, Kevork Abazajian
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has validated and made publicly available its First Data Release. This consists of 2099 square degrees of five-band (u, g, r, i, z) imaging data, 186,2…
Anthropic predictions for neutrino masses
Max Tegmark, Alexander Vilenkin, Levon Pogosian
It is argued that small values of the neutrino masses may be due to anthropic selection effects. If this is the case, then the combined mass of the three neutrino species is expect…
On Departures From a Power Law in the Galaxy Correlation Function
Idit Zehavi, David H. Weinberg, Zheng Zheng +7
We measure the projected correlation function w_p(r_p) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey for a flux-limited sample of 118,000 galaxies and for a volume limited subset of 22,000 gal…
