Effects of boosting on extragalactic components: methods and statistical studies
William R. Coulton, Sydney Feldman, Karime Maamari +3
In this work we examine the impact of our motion with respect to the CMB rest frame on statistics of CMB maps by examining the one-, two-, three- and four- point statistics of simu…
CMB-S4: Forecasting Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves
S4 Collaboration, Kevork Abazajian, Graeme E. Addison +233
CMB-S4---the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment---is set to significantly advance the sensitivity of CMB measurements and enhance our underst…
Footprints of Doppler and Aberration Effects in CMB Experiments: Statistical and Cosmological Implications
Siavash Yasini, Elena Pierpaoli
In the frame of the Solar System, the Doppler and aberration effects cause distortions in the form of mode couplings in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polari…
CMB-S4 Decadal Survey APC White Paper
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We provide an overview of the science case, instrument configuration and project plan for the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4, for consid…
The Simons Observatory: Astro2020 Decadal Project Whitepaper
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Shunsuke Adachi +280
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment sited on Cerro Toco in the Atacama Desert in Chile that promises to provide breakthrough…
CMB-S4 Science Case, Reference Design, and Project Plan
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We present the science case, reference design, and project plan for the Stage-4 ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4.
Primordial Non-Gaussianity
P. Daniel Meerburg, Daniel Green, Muntazir Abidi +175
Our current understanding of the Universe is established through the pristine measurements of structure in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the distribution and shapes of…
Messengers from the Early Universe: Cosmic Neutrinos and Other Light Relics
Daniel Green, Mustafa A. Amin, Joel Meyers +136
The hot dense environment of the early universe is known to have produced large numbers of baryons, photons, and neutrinos. These extreme conditions may have also produced other lo…
Pairwise Transverse Velocity Measurement with the Rees-Sciama Effect
Siavash Yasini, Nareg Mirzatuny, Elena Pierpaoli
We introduce a new estimator for the mean pairwise velocities of galaxy clusters, which is based on the measurement of the clusters' velocity components. The…
A Generalized Doppler and Aberration Kernel for Frequency-Dependent Cosmological Observables
Siavash Yasini, Elena Pierpaoli
We introduce a Doppler and aberration transformation kernel for the harmonic multipoles of a general cosmological observable with spin weight , Do…
Beyond the Boost: Measuring the intrinsic dipole of the CMB using the spectral distortions of the monopole and quadrupole
Siavash Yasini, Elena Pierpaoli
We present a general framework for accurate spectral modeling of the low multipoles of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) as observed in a boosted frame. In particular, we demon…
Kinetic Sunyaev Zeldovich effect in an anisotropic CMB model: measuring low multipoles of the CMB at higher redshifts using intensity and polarization spectral distortions
Siavash Yasini, Elena Pierpaoli
We present a novel mathematical formalism that allows to easily compute the expected kinetic Sunyaev Zeldovich (kSZ) signal in intensity and polarization due to an anisotropic prim…
