The role of in CMB anisotropy measurements

Yunfei Wen, Douglas Scott, Raelyn Sullivan +1

The quantity , the cosmic microwave background (CMB) monopole, is an often neglected seventh parameter of the standard cosmological model. As well as its variation affecting t…

Planck 2018 results. VII. Isotropy and Statistics of the CMB

Planck Collaboration, Y. Akrami, M. Ashdown +147

Analysis of the Planck 2018 data set indicates that the statistical properties of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies are in excellent agreement with pre…

Planck 2018 results. X. Constraints on inflation

Planck Collaboration, Y. Akrami, F. Arroja +173

We report on the implications for cosmic inflation of the 2018 Release of the Planck CMB anisotropy measurements. The results are fully consistent with the two previous Planck cosm…

Closing in on the large-scale CMB power asymmetry

D. Contreras, J. Hutchinson, A. Moss +2

Measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies have revealed a dipolar asymmetry in power at the largest scales, in apparent contradiction with the…

Testing physical models for dipolar asymmetry with CMB polarization

D. Contreras, J. P. Zibin, D. Scott +2

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies exhibit a large-scale dipolar power asymmetry. To determine whether this is due to a real, physical modulation or is…

Testing physical models for dipolar asymmetry: from temperature to k space to lensing

J. P. Zibin, D. Contreras

One of the most intriguing hints of a departure from the standard cosmological model is a large-scale dipolar power asymmetry in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). If not a sta…
