Multipolar structure of the local expansion rate from incomplete sky data

João G. Vicente, Thiago S. Pereira, Ricardo G. Rodrigues +2

Using the Cosmicflows-4 data, we reconstruct the first multipolar moments of a general function describing the local expansion rate. In addition to the conventional harmonic approa…

Quantum Signatures of Cosmic Topology: How Casimir Backreaction Transmits Isotropy Violation

Anna Negro, Kurt Hinterbichler, Glenn D. Starkman +17

A finite, scheme-independent Casimir contribution to the stress-energy tensor arises naturally for quantum fields in universes with non-trivial spatial topology. We compute this Ca…

Cosmic topology. Part IIc. Detectability with non-standard primordial power spectrum

Joline Noltmann, Andrius Tamosiunas, Deyan P. Mihaylov +13

Non-trivial spatial topology of the Universe can imprint potentially observable signatures on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In this study, we investigate how deviations fr…

CMB line-of-sight integrators for nearly-isotropic cosmological models

João G. Vicente, Thiago S. Pereira, Cyril Pitrou

Homogeneous and nearly-isotropic cosmological models are natural extensions of standard Friedmann cosmologies. Constraining their features is crucial, as any detection of their pro…

Testing gaussianity, homogeneity and isotropy with the cosmic microwave background

L. Raul Abramo, Thiago S. Pereira

We review the basic hypotheses which motivate the statistical framework used to analyze the cosmic microwave background, and how that framework can be enlarged as we relax those hy…

Searching for planar signatures in WMAP

L. Raul Abramo, Armando Bernui, Thiago S. Pereira

We search for planar deviations of statistical isotropy in the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) data by applying a recently introduced angular-planar statistics both to…

Angular-planar CMB power spectrum

Thiago S. Pereira, L. Raul Abramo

Gaussianity and statistical isotropy of the Universe are modern cosmology's minimal set of hypotheses. In this work we introduce a new statistical test to detect observational devi…
