We apply a new model for the spherically averaged correlation function at large pair separations to the measurement of the clustering of luminous red galaxies (LRGs) made from the SDSS by Cabre and Gaztanaga(2009). Our model takes into…

We introduce here a cross-correlation term between CMB lensing and galaxy intrinsic alignment, noted hereby as $\phi I$. This effect acts as a contaminant to the cross-correlation between CMB lensing and galaxy lensing. The latter…

Lensing reconstruction maps from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) provide direct observations of the matter distribution of the universe without the use of a biased tracer. Such maps, however, constitute projected observables along the…

The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) reaches homogeneity at relatively modest angular scales compared to the expectation of the standard $\Lambda$CDM model revealing an important challenge to the theoretical predictions. We analyze this…

The conventional $\Lambda$CDM cosmological model supplemented by the inflation concept describes the Universe very well. However, there are still a few concerns: new Planck data impose constraints on the shape of the inflaton potential,…
