First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Dark Energy Induced Correlation with Radio Sources
M. R. Nolta, E. L. Wright, L. Page +10
The first-year WMAP data, in combination with any one of a number of other cosmic probes, show that we live in a flat Λ-dominated CDM universe with Ω_m ~ 0.27 and Ω_Λ~ 0.73. In thi…
Design, Implementation and Testing of the MAP Radiometers
N. Jarosik, C. L. Bennett, M. Halpern +12
The Microwave Anisotropy Probe (MAP) satellite, launched June 30, 2001, will produce full sky maps of the cosmic microwave background radiation in 5 frequency bands spanning 20 - 1…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: On-Orbit Radiometer Characterization
N. Jarosik, C. Barnes, C. L. Bennett +11
The WMAP satellite has completed one year of measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation using 20 differential high-electron-mobility-transistor (HEMT) based ra…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Angular Power Spectrum
G. Hinshaw, D. N. Spergel, L. Verde +14
We present the angular power spectrum derived from the first-year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) sky maps. We study a variety of power spectrum estimation methods and…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Galactic Signal Contamination from Sidelobe Pickup
C. Barnes, R. S. Hill, G. Hinshaw +10
Since the Galactic center is ~1000 times brighter than fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), CMB experiments must carefully account for stray Galactic pickup. We p…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Implications for Inflation
H. V. Peiris, E. Komatsu, L. Verde +12
We confront predictions of inflationary scenarios with the WMAP data, in combination with complementary small-scale CMB measurements and large-scale structure data. The WMAP detect…
