Detecting the B-mode Polarisation of the CMB with Clover
C. E. North, B. R. Johnson, P. A. R. Ade +41
We describe the objectives, design and predicted performance of Clover, which is a ground-based experiment to measure the faint ``B-mode'' polarisation pattern in the cosmic microw…
A high-significance detection of non-Gaussianity in the WMAP 5-year data using directional spherical wavelets
J. D. McEwen, M. P. Hobson, A. N. Lasenby +1
We repeat the directional spherical real Morlet wavelet analysis, used to detect non-Gaussianity in the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) 1-year and 3-year data (McEwen e…
A low CMB variance in the WMAP data
C. Monteserin, R. B. Barreiro, P. Vielva +3
We have estimated the CMB variance from the three-year WMAP data, finding a value which is significantly lower than the one expected from Gaussian simulations using the WMAP best-f…
Cosmological applications of a wavelet analysis on the sphere
J. D. McEwen, P. Vielva, Y. Wiaux +6
The cosmic microwave background (CMB) is a relic radiation of the Big Bang and as such it contains a wealth of cosmological information. Statistical analyses of the CMB, in conjunc…
Probing dark energy with steerable wavelets through correlation of WMAP and NVSS local morphological measures
J. D. McEwen, Y. Wiaux, M. P. Hobson +2
Using local morphological measures on the sphere defined through a steerable wavelet analysis, we examine the three-year WMAP and the NVSS data for correlation induced by the integ…
Constraints on spinning dust towards Galactic targets with the VSA: a tentative detection of excess microwave emission towards 3C396
Anna Scaife, David A. Green, Richard A. Battye +18
We present results from observations made at 33 GHz with the Very Small Array (VSA) telescope towards potential candidates in the Galactic plane for spinning dust emission. In the…
