The Cosmic Radio Dipole and Observer Effects in SKA all-sky surveys

D. Bertacca, L. Böhme, B. Bottazzi Baldi +13

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will observe our Universe on the largest scales and so enable the study of fundamental assumptions in cosmology, such as cosmic homogeneity and iso…

The Ellis and Baldwin test of the Cosmic Dipole: Exploring the impact of multiple flux density cuts

Vasudev Mittal, Geraint F. Lewis

The cosmic dipole tension - the discrepancy between the Cosmic Microwave Background kinematic dipole and the matter dipole inferred from all-sky surveys poses a significant challen…

Cosmic Multipoles in Galaxy Surveys II: Comparing Different Methods in Assessing the Cosmic Dipole

Vasudev Mittal, Oliver T. Oayda, Geraint F. Lewis

We present a comparative analysis of estimators and Bayesian methods for determining the number count dipole from cosmological surveys. The increase in discordance between the numb…

Cosmic Multipoles in Galaxy Surveys Part I: How Inferences Depend on Source Counts and Masks

Oliver T. Oayda, Vasudev Mittal, Geraint F. Lewis

We present a new approach to constructing and fitting dipoles and higher-order multipoles in synthetic galaxy samples over the sky. Within our Bayesian paradigm, we illustrate that…

A Bayesian approach to the cosmic dipole in radio galaxy surveys: Joint analysis of NVSS & RACS

Oliver T. Oayda, Vasudev Mittal, Geraint F. Lewis +1

We examine the sky distribution of radio galaxies in the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) and the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS). Analyses of these samples have reported tension bet…

The Cosmic Dipole in the Quaia Sample of Quasars: A Bayesian Analysis

Vasudev Mittal, Oliver T. Oayda, Geraint F. Lewis

We present a Bayesian analysis of the Quaia sample of 1.3 million quasars as a test of the cosmological principle. This principle postulates that the universe is homogeneous and is…
