Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe 7-yr constraints on fNL with a fast wavelet estimator
B. Casaponsa, R. B. Barreiro, A. Curto +2
A new method to constrain the local non-linear coupling parameter fNL based on a fast wavelet decomposition is presented. Using a multiresolution wavelet adapted to the HEALPix pix…
The Herschel-SPIRE Legacy Survey (HSLS): the scientific goals of a shallow and wide submillimeter imaging survey with SPIRE
Asantha Cooray, Steve Eales, Scott Chapman +247
A large sub-mm survey with Herschel will enable many exciting science opportunities, especially in an era of wide-field optical and radio surveys and high resolution cosmic microwa…
On the optimality of the spherical Mexican hat wavelet estimator for the primordial non-Gaussianity
A. Curto, E. Martinez-Gonzalez, R. B. Barreiro
We study the spherical Mexican hat wavelet (SMHW) as a detector of primordial non-Gaussianity of the local type on the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies. For this purp…
Anomalous variance in the WMAP data and Galactic Foreground residuals
M. Cruz, P. Vielva, E. Martínez-González +1
A previous work (Monteserín et al. 2008) estimated the CMB variance from the three-year WMAP data, finding a lower value than expected from Gaussian simulations using the WMAP best…
Planck pre-launch status: the Planck-LFI programme
N. Mandolesi, M. Bersanelli, R. C. Butler +140
This paper provides an overview of the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) programme within the ESA Planck mission. The LFI instrument has been developed to produce high precision maps…
