CMBPol Mission Concept Study: Gravitational Lensing
Kendrick M. Smith, Asantha Cooray, Sudeep Das +10
Gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background by large-scale structure in the late universe is both a source of cosmological information and a potential contaminant of p…
CMB Beam Systematics: Impact on Lensing Parameter Estimation
N. J. Miller, M. Shimon, B. G. Keating
The CMB's B-mode polarization provides a handle on several cosmological parameters most notably the tensor-to-scalar ratio, , and is sensitive to parameters which govern the gro…
CMB Polarization Systematics Due to Beam Asymmetry: Impact on Inflationary Science
Meir Shimon, Brian Keating, Nicolas Ponthieu +1
CMB polarization provides a unique window into cosmological inflation; the amplitude of the B-mode polarization from last scattering is uniquely sensitive to the energetics of infl…
Modeling Integrated Properties and the Polarization of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect
Y. Rephaeli, S. Sadeh, M. Shimon
Two little explored aspects of Compton scattering of the CMB in clusters are discussed: The statistical properties of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (S-Z) effect in the context of a non-Gau…
The Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect
Y. Rephaeli, S. Sadeh, M. Shimon
This brief, general review the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (S-Z) effect includes a description of the calculation of the total intensity change and polarization components, a discussion of t…
Quantitative Description of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect: Analytic Approximations
Meir Shimon, Yoel Rephaeli
Various aspects of relativistic calculations of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect are explored and clarified. We first formally show that the main previous approaches to the calculation…
