Partial CMB maps: bias removal and optimal binning of the angular power spectrum

R. Ansari, C. Magneville

We present a semi-analytical method to investigate the systematic effects and statistical uncertainties of the calculated angular power spectrum when incomplete spherical maps are…

New Magellanic Cloud R Coronae Borealis and DY Per type stars from the EROS-2 database: the connection between RCBs, DYPers and ordinary carbon stars

P. Tisserand, P. R. Wood, J. B. Marquette +29

R Coronae Borealis stars (RCB) are a rare type of evolved carbon-rich supergiant stars that are increasingly thought to result from the merger of two white dwarfs, called the Doubl…

21 cm Intensity Mapping

Jeffrey B. Peterson, Roy Aleksan, Reza Ansari +37

Using the 21 cm line, observed all-sky and across the redshift range from 0 to 5, the large scale structure of the Universe can be mapped in three dimensions. This can be accomplis…

The EROS2 search for microlensing events towards the spiral arms: the complete seven season results

Y. R. Rahal, C. Afonso, J. -N. Albert +36

The EROS-2 project has been designed to search for microlensing events towards any dense stellar field. The densest parts of the Galactic spiral arms have been monitored to maximiz…

The beat Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds: an analysis from the EROS-2 database

J. B. Marquette, J. P. Beaulieu, J. R. Buchler +36

A number of microlensing dark-matter surveys have produced tens of millions of light curves of individual background stars. These data provide an unprecedented opportunity for syst…
