The Internal Linear Combination (ILC) method has been extensively used to extract the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy map from foreground contaminated multi-frequency maps. However, the performance of simple ILC is limited and…

Planck has mapped the microwave sky in nine frequency bands between 30 and 857 GHz in temperature and seven bands between 30 and 353 GHz in polarization. In this paper we consider the problem of diffuse astrophysical component separation,…
We present the Planck Sky Model (PSM), a parametric model for the generation of all-sky, few arcminute resolution maps of sky emission at submillimetre to centimetre wavelengths, in both intensity and polarisation. Several options are…
At high angular frequencies the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect constitutes the dominant signal in the CMB sky. The tSZ effect is caused by large scale pressure fluctuations in the baryonic distribution in the Universe so its…
The recent release of {\it Planck} data gives access to a full sky coverage of the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect and of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing potential ($\phi$). The cross-correlation of these two probes of…
We propose a new analysis of small scale CMB data by introducing the cosmological dependency of the foreground signals, focusing first on the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) power spectrum, derived from the halo model. We analyse the…
We report a $5\sigma$ detection of the pairwise kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect, combining galaxy clusters in DESI imaging surveys and the Planck temperature maps. The detection is facilitated by both improvements in the data and…

We investigate the impact of relativistic SZ corrections on Planck measurements of massive galaxy clusters, finding that they have a significant impact at the $\approx$5 -- 15% and up to $\approx 3\sigma$ level. We investigate the…

We examine the ability of the future Planck mission to provide a catalogue of galaxy clusters observed via their SZ distortion in the cosmic microwave background. For this purpose we produce full-sky SZ maps based on N-body simulations and…
