On the growth of structure in theories with a dynamical preferred frame

T. G Zlosnik, P. G. Ferreira, G. D. Starkman

We study the cosmological stability of a class of theories with a dynamical preferred frame. For a range of actions, we find cosmological solutions which are compatible with observ…

MAXIMA: A Balloon-Borne Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropy Experiment

B. Rabii, C. D. Winant, M. E. Abroe +20

We describe the Millimeter wave Anisotropy eXperiment IMaging Array (MAXIMA), a balloon-borne experiment designed to measure the temperature anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Back…

Correlations Between the WMAP and MAXIMA Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropy Maps

M. E. Abroe, J. Borrill, P. G. Ferreira +10

We cross-correlate the cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropy maps from the WMAP, MAXIMA-I, and MAXIMA-II experiments. We use the cross-spectrum, which is the spherical…

Determining Foreground Contamination in CMB Observations: Diffuse Galactic Emission in the MAXIMA-I Field

A. H. Jaffe, A. Balbi, J. R. Bond +11

Observations of the CMB can be contaminated by diffuse foreground emission from sources such as Galactic dust and synchrotron radiation. In these cases, the morphology of the conta…

The shape of a small universe: signatures in the cosmic microwave background

R. Bowen, P. G. Ferreira

We consider the most general parametrization of flat topologically compact universes, complementing the work of Scannapieco, Levin and Silk to include non-trivial shapes. We find t…
