Constraining $\hat{I}¼$ and $y$ distortions in the Cosmic Microwave Background with COBE/FIRAS Data

Somita Dhal, Koustav Konar, R. K. Paul

This paper presents a novel approach to constrain the $\hat{I}¼$- and y- distortions in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) using the COBE/FIRAS data. The analysis draws from the conce…
