Non-Gaussianity in the Very Small Array CMB maps with Smooth-Goodness-of-fit tests

Jose Alberto Rubino-Martin, Antonio M. Aliaga, R. B. Barreiro +31

(Abridged) We have used the Rayner & Best (1989) smooth tests of goodness-of-fit to study the Gaussianity of the Very Small Array (VSA) data. Out of the 41 published VSA individual…

Gaussianity of the CMB: Smooth Goodness of Fit Tests Applied to Interferometric Data

A. M. Aliaga, J. A. Rubino-Martin, E. Martinez-Gonzalez +2

We adapt the smooth tests of goodness of fit developed by Rayner and Best to the study of the non-Gaussianity of interferometric observations of the cosmic microwave background (CM…

Tests of Gaussianity

A. M. Aliaga, E. Martinez-Gonzalez, L. Cayon +4

We review two powerful methods to test the Gaussianity of the cosmic microwave background (CMB): one based on the distribution of spherical wavelet coefficients and the other on sm…

Goodness-of-fit tests of Gaussianity: constraints on the cumulants of the MAXIMA data

A. M. Aliaga, E. Martinez-Gonzalez, L. Cayon +3

In this work, goodness-of-fit tests are adapted and applied to CMB maps to detect possible non-Gaussianity. We use Shapiro-Francia test and two Smooth goodness-of-fit tests: one de…

Non-circular rotating beams and CMB experiments

J. V. Arnau, A. M. Aliaga, D. Saez

This paper is concerned with small angular scale experiments for the observation of cosmic microwave background anisotropies. In the absence of beam, the effects of partial coverag…
