Improved calculations of electron-ion Bremsstrahlung Gaunt factors for astrophysical applications
Jens Chluba, Andrea Ravenni, Boris Bolliet
Electron-ion Bremsstrahlung (free-free) emission and absorption occur in many astrophysical plasmas for a wide range of physical conditions. This classical problem has been studied…
New Horizons in Cosmology with Spectral Distortions of the Cosmic Microwave Background
J. Chluba, M. H. Abitbol, N. Aghanim +27
Voyage 2050 White Paper highlighting the unique science opportunities using spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). CMB spectral distortions probe many proce…
Microwave Spectro-Polarimetry of Matter and Radiation across Space and Time
Jacques Delabrouille, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Nabila Aghanim +77
This paper discusses the science case for a sensitive spectro-polarimetric survey of the microwave sky. Such a survey would provide a tomographic and dynamic census of the three-di…
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…
Including massive neutrinos in thermal Sunyaev Zeldovich power spectrum and cluster counts analyses
Boris Bolliet, Thejs Brinckmann, Jens Chluba +1
We consistently include the effect of massive neutrinos in the thermal Sunyaev Zeldovich (SZ) power spectrum and cluster counts analyses, highlighting subtle dependencies on the to…
Dark sector evolution in Horndeski models
Francesco Pace, Richard A. Battye, Boris Bolliet +1
We use the Equation of State (EoS) approach to study the evolution of the dark sector in Horndeski models, the most general scalar-tensor theories with second order equations of mo…
Spectral Distortions of the CMB as a Probe of Inflation, Recombination, Structure Formation and Particle Physics
J. Chluba, A. Kogut, S. P. Patil +98
Following the pioneering observations with COBE in the early 1990s, studies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have focused on temperature and polarization anisotropies. CMB…
