Radio Recombination Line Contamination in Post-Reionization 21 cm Intensity Mapping

Pip Petersen, Yakov Faerman, Matthew McQuinn

We explore radio recombination line (RRL) contamination in post-reionization 21 cm intensity mapping observations. We develop a formalism to estimate the contamination of the 21 cm…

Cosmic topology. Part IIa. Eigenmodes, correlation matrices, and detectability of orientable Euclidean manifolds

Johannes R. Eskilt, Yashar Akrami, Stefano Anselmi +11

If the Universe has non-trivial spatial topology, observables depend on both the parameters of the spatial manifold and the position and orientation of the observer. In infinite Eu…

Cosmic topology. Part I. Limits on orientable Euclidean manifolds from circle searches

Pip Petersen, Yashar Akrami, Craig J. Copi +9

The Einstein field equations of general relativity constrain the local curvature at every point in spacetime, but say nothing about the global topology of the Universe. Cosmic micr…

Promise of Future Searches for Cosmic Topology

Yashar Akrami, Stefano Anselmi, Craig J. Copi +12

The shortest distance around the Universe through us is unlikely to be much larger than the horizon diameter if microwave background anomalies are due to cosmic topology. We show t…

Tunneling dynamics of an oscillating universe model

Martin Bojowald, Pip Petersen

Quasiclassical methods for non-adiabatic quantum dynamics can reveal new features of quantum effects, such as tunneling evolution, that are harder to reveal in standard treatments…
