Point Source Contamination in CMB Non-Gaussianity Analyses
Daniel Babich, Elena Pierpaoli
In this paper we analyze the biasing effect of point sources, either thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich clusters or standard radio sources, on the estimated strength of the non-Gaussianity…
What Can the Cosmic Microwave Background Tell Us About the Outer Solar System?
Daniel Babich, Cullen H. Blake, Charles Steinhardt
We discuss two new observational techniques that use observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) to place constraints upon the mass, distance, and size distribution of sm…
Imprint of Distortions in the Oort Cloud on the CMB Anisotropies
Daniel Babich, Abraham Loeb
We study the effect of a close encounter of a passing star on the shape of the inner Oort Cloud, using the impulse approximation. The deviation of the perturbed Oort Cloud from sph…
CMB Anisotropies from Outflows in Lyman Break Galaxies
Daniel Babich, Abraham Loeb
Thomson scattering of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) on moving electrons in the outflows of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) at redshifts 2-8 contributes to the small-scale CMB a…
Imprint of Inhomogeneous Reionization on the Power Spectrum of Galaxy Surveys at High Redshifts
Daniel Babich, Abraham Loeb
We consider the effects of inhomogeneous reionization on the distribution of galaxies at high redshifts. Modulation of the formation process of the ionizing sources by large scale…
Polarization of 21cm Radiation from the Epoch of Reionization
Daniel Babich, Abraham Loeb
We consider the polarization of 21cm line radiation from the epoch of reionization due to both intrinsically polarized emission and secondary mechanisms. We argue that Thomson scat…
