Monocular depth estimation has recently progressed beyond ordinal depth to provide metric depth predictions. However, its reliability in underwater environments remains limited due to light attenuation and scattering, color distortion,…
When using valid foreground and signal models, the uncertainties on extracted signals in global 21-cm signal experiments depend principally on the overlap between signal and foreground models. In this paper, we investigate two strategies…
Cosmological galaxy surveys aim at mapping the largest volumes to test models with techniques such as cluster abundance, cosmic shear correlations or baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO), which are designed to be independent of galaxy bias.…
In the covariant cosmological perturbation theory, a 1+3 decomposition ensures that all variables in the frame-independent equations are covariant, gauge-invariant and have clear physical interpretations. We develop this formalism in the…
The fine tuning of parameters required to reproduce our present day Universe suggests that our Universe may simply be a region within an eternally inflating super-region. Many other regions beyond our observable Universe would exist with…
We present AstroCLIP, a single, versatile model that can embed both galaxy images and spectra into a shared, physically meaningful latent space. These embeddings can then be used - without any model fine-tuning - for a variety of downstream…
Reliable and efficient computation of the pseudospectral abscissa in the large-scale setting is still not settled. Unlike the small-scale setting where there are globally convergent criss-cross algorithms, all algorithms in the large-scale…
The existence of a radio synchrotron background (RSB) excess is implied by a number of measurements, including excess emission seen by the ARCADE~2 and LWA experiments. Highly sensitive wideband radio arrays, of the kind used to measure the…
Reconstruction of gravitational lensing effects in the CMB from current and upcoming surveys is still dominated by temperature anisotropies. Extragalactic foregrounds in temperature maps can induce significant biases in the lensing power…
A key goal of many Cosmic Microwave Background experiments is the detection of gravitational waves, through their B-mode polarization signal at large scales. To extract such a signal requires modelling contamination from the Galaxy. Using…
The extragalactic background radiation produced by distant galaxies emitting in the far infrared limits the sensitivity of telescopes operating in this range due to confusion. We have constructed a model of the infrared background based on…
We use numerical simulations to calculate the cosmic microwave background anisotropy induced by the evolution of a global texture field, with special emphasis on individual textures. Both spherically symmetric and general configurations are…
Spectral distortion anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) provide a new probe of the early Universe that can be accessed using traditional CMB imaging techniques. It is possible to compute the creation and evolution of…
The power spectrum of redshifted 21 cm emission brightness temperature fluctuations is a powerful probe of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). However, bright foreground emission presents a significant impediment to its unbiased recovery from…
We compute the power spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background temperature anisotropies generated by the Intergalactic Medium. To estimate the electron pressure along the line of sight and its contribution to the Sunyaev-Zeldovich…
This work is dedicated to $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}$-related integrable stochastic vertex models; we call such models coloured. We prove several results about these models, which include the following: (1) We construct the basis of (rational)…
We consider the problem of parametrizing modified gravity theories that include an additional vector field in the sub-Hubble regime within the quasi-static approximation. We start from the most general set of second order equations for…
Upcoming and future neutral hydrogen Intensity Mapping surveys offer a great opportunity to constrain cosmology in the post-reionization Universe, provided a good accuracy is achieved in the separation between the strong foregrounds and the…
In this work we present 21cmFirstCLASS, a modified version of 21cmFAST, the most popular code in the literature for computing the anisotropies of the 21-cm signal. Our code uses the public cosmic microwave background (CMB) Boltzmann code…
The effects on CMB measurements of foreground contamination due to synchrotron radiation, free-free emission and discrete sources are considered. Estimates of the level and power spectrum of the Galactic fluctuations are made using low…
