Optimal whitening and decorrelation

Agnan Kessy, Alex Lewin, Korbinian Strimmer

Whitening, or sphering, is a common preprocessing step in statistical analysis to transform random variables to orthogonality. However, due to rotational freedom there are infinite…

Can inflationary models of cosmic perturbations evade the secondary oscillation test?

Alex Lewin, Andreas Albrecht

We consider the consequences of an observed Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature anisotropy spectrum containing no secondary oscillations. While such a spectrum is general…

A new statistic for picking out Non-Gaussianity in the CMB

Alex Lewin, Andreas Albrecht, Joao Magueijo

In this paper we propose a new statistic capable of detecting non-Gaussianity in the CMB. The statistic is defined in Fourier space, and therefore naturally separates angular scale…

Non-Gaussian spectra and the search for cosmic strings

Joao Magueijo, Alex Lewin

We present a new tool for relating theory and experiment suited for non-Gaussian theories: non-Gaussian spectra. It does for non-Gaussian theories what the angular power spectrum $…
