Minkowski Functionals of CMB polarisation intensity with Pynkowski: theory and application to Planck and future data

Alessandro Carones, Javier Carrón Duque, Domenico Marinucci +2

The angular power spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies is a key tool to study the Universe. However, it is blind to the presence of non--Gaussianities and…

Exploring Cosmic Origins with CORE: The Instrument

P. de Bernardis, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. A. Baselmans +126

We describe a space-borne, multi-band, multi-beam polarimeter aiming at a precise and accurate measurement of the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background. The instrument is…

Spherical Needlets for CMB Data Analysis

D. Marinucci, D. Pietrobon, A. Balbi +6

We discuss Spherical Needlets and their properties. Needlets are a form of spherical wavelets which do not rely on any kind of tangent plane approximation and enjoy good localizati…

CMB Power Spectrum Estimation for the Planck Surveyor

A. Balbi, G. de Gasperis, P. Natoli +1

We use an iterative generalized least squares map-making algorithm, in conjunction with Monte Carlo techniques, to obtain estimates of the angular power spectrum from cosmic microw…

CMB Polarization: Scientific Case and Data Analysis Issues

A. Balbi, P. Cabella, G. de Gasperis +2

We review the science case for studying CMB polarization. We then discuss the main issues related to the analysis of forth-coming polarized CMB data, such as those expected from ba…

On the primordial helium content: CMB and stellar constraints

G. Bono, A. Balbi, S. Cassisi +2

We present the results of a joint investigation aimed at constraining the primordial He content () on the basis of both the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy and tw…
