Microwave Background Polarization as a Probe of Large-Angle Correlations

Amanda Yoho, Simone Aiola, Craig J. Copi +2

Two-point correlation functions of cosmic microwave background polarization provide a physically independent probe of the surprising suppression of correlations in the cosmic micro…

Linking the BICEP2 result and the hemispherical power asymmetry through spatial variation of

Jens Chluba, Liang Dai, Donghui Jeong +2

For the simplest inflation models, the recent detection of a large primordial B-mode polarization signal by the BICEP2 experiment indicates a slight tension with the upper limit on…

Real Space Approach to CMB deboosting

Amanda Yoho, Craig J. Copi, Glenn D. Starkman +1

The effect of our Galaxy's motion through the Cosmic Microwave Background rest frame, which aberrates and Doppler shifts incoming photons measured by current CMB experiments, has b…

Effect of Our Galaxy's Motion on Weak Lensing Measurements of Shear and Convergence

J. B. Mertens, A. Yoho, G. D. Starkman

In this work we investigate the effect on weak-lensing shear and convergence measurements due to distortions from the Lorentz boost induced by our Galaxy's motion. While no ellipti…

Effects of a Cut, Lorentz-Boosted sky on the Angular Power Spectrum

Thiago S. Pereira, Amanda Yoho, Maik Stuke +1

The largest fluctuation in the observed CMB temperature field is the dipole, its origin being usually attributed to the Doppler Effect - the Earth's velocity with respect to the CM…

Degree-scale anomalies in the CMB: localizing the first peak dip to a small patch of the north ecliptic sky

Amanda Yoho, Francesc Ferrer, Glenn D. Starkman

Noticeable deviations from the prediction of the fiducial LCDM cosmology are found in the angular power spectrum of the CMB. Besides large-angle anomalies, the WMAP 1st year data r…
