Delayed Recombination and Standard Rulers
Francesco De Bernardis, Rachel Bean, Silvia Galli +3
Measurements of Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations in galaxy surveys have been recognized as a powerful tool for constraining dark energy. However, this method relies on the knowledge…
CMBPol Mission Concept Study: Probing Inflation with CMB Polarization
Daniel Baumann, Mark G. Jackson, Peter Adshead +56
We summarize the utility of precise cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization measurements as probes of the physics of inflation. We focus on the prospects for using CMB measu…
Improving Photometric Redshifts using GALEX Observations for the SDSS Stripe 82 and the Next Generation of SZ Cluster Surveys
Michael D. Niemack, Raul Jimenez, Licia Verde +3
Four large-area Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) experiments -- APEX-SZ, SPT, ACT, and Planck -- promise to detect clusters of galaxies through the distortion of Cosmic Microwave Background…
Finding Evidence for Massive Neutrinos using 3D Weak Lensing
T. D. Kitching, A. F. Heavens, L. Verde +2
In this paper we investigate the potential of 3D cosmic shear to constrain massive neutrino parameters. We find that if the total mass is substantial (near the upper limits from LS…
Observational signatures of Jordan-Brans-Dicke theories of gravity
Viviana Acquaviva, Licia Verde
We analyze the Jordan-Brans-Dicke model (JBD) of gravity, where deviations from General Relativity (GR) are described by a scalar field non-minimally coupled to gravity. The theory…
