The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect is the inverse Compton-scattering of cosmic microwave background (CMB) photons by hot electrons in the intervening gas throughout the universe. The effect has a distinct spectral signature that allows its…

An international project is underway to design and build a radio telescope with an effective collecting area two orders of magnitude greater than the largest existing instruments. One of the many scientific goals of this instrument will be…
Synchrotron emission is an important process in Galactic dynamics and a potentially confusing foreground for cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation observations. Though the mechanism of synchrotron emission is well understood, the…
We perform a detailed analysis of the synchrotron signals produced by Dark Matter annihilations and decays. We consider different set-ups for the propagation of electrons and positrons, the galactic magnetic field and Dark Matter…
Observations by ARCADE-2 and other telescopes sensitive to low frequency radiation have revealed the presence of an isotropic radio background with a hard spectral index. The intensity of this observed background is found to exceed the flux…
The sensitivity of astronomical X-ray detectors is limited by the instrumental background. The background is especially important when observing low surface brightness sources that are critical for many of the science cases targeted by…
We discuss the expected amplitude of a cosmic background of massive, non-relativistic dilatons, and we report recent results about its possible detection. This paper is a contracted version of a talk given at the 15th SIGRAV Conference on…
We present a tentative summary of the many very interesting issues that have been addresses at this workshop, focussing in particular on the perspectives for measuring the polarization power spectra of the Cosmic Microwave Background…
The shocks produced in the intergalactic medium during large-scale structure formation accelerate a population of highly relativistic electrons which emit synchrotron radiation due to intergalactic magnetic fields. In a previous paper (Loeb…
We present a search for the synchrotron emission from the synchrotron cosmic web by cross correlating 180MHz radio images from the Murchison Widefield Array with tracers of large scale structure (LSS). We use two versions of the radio image…
Radio observations provide a powerful tool to constrain the assembly of galaxies over cosmic time. Recent deep and wide radio continuum surveys have improved significantly our understanding on radio emission properties of AGNs and SFGs…
We present high resolution (9$^{\prime \prime}$) imaging of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect (SZE) toward two massive galaxy clusters, MACS J0647.7+7015 ($z=0.591$) and MACS J1206.2-0847 ($z=0.439$). We compare these 90 GHz measurements, taken…
The goal of the KArlsruhe TRItrium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment is the determination of the effective electron antineutrino mass with a sensitivity of 0.2 eV/c$^2$ at 90% C.L. This goal can only be achieved with a very low background level…
A wealth of new data from upgraded and new radio interferometers are rapidly improving and transforming our understanding of the faint extra-galactic radio sky. Indeed the mounting statistics at sub-mJy and uJy flux levels is finally…
Although the Planck Surveyor mission is optimized to map the cosmic microwave background anisotropies, it will also provide extremely valuable information on astrophysical phenomena. We review our present understanding of Galactic and…
