Testing for non-Gaussianity of the cosmic microwave background in harmonic space: an empirical process approach
Frode K. Hansen, Domenico Marinucci, Paolo Natoli +1
We present a new, model-independent approach for measuring non-Gaussianity of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy pattern. Our approach is based on the empirical distr…
The BOOMERanG experiment and the curvature of the Universe
S. Masi, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +35
We describe the BOOMERanG experiment and its main result, i.e. the measurement of the large scale curvature of the Universe. BOOMERanG is a balloon-borne microwave telescope with s…
Search for non-gaussian signals in the BOOMERanG maps: pixel-space analysis
G. Polenta, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +28
We search the BOOMERanG maps of the anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) for deviations from gaussianity. In this paper we focus on analysis techniques in pixel-spac…
