Evidences for late-time acceleration of the Universe are provided by multiple probes, such as Type Ia supernovae, the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and large-scale structure (LSS). In this work, we focus on the integrated Sachs--Wolfe…
We present a map of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies induced by the late Integrated Sachs Wolfe effect. The map is constructed by combining the information of the WMAP 7-yr CMB data and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS)…
We study CMB in the nonstandard background cosmology recently investigated. Using the previously calculated first order metric perturbations we discuss the Sachs-Wolfe and the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effects. We show how small-multipole CMB…
