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…

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…
