We report observation of isotropic interplanetary dust (IPD) by analyzing the infrared (IR) maps of Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) onboard the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) spacecraft. To search for the isotropic IPD, we…

We develop a new Bayesian method for estimating white noise levels in CMB sky maps, and apply this algorithm to the 5-year WMAP data. We assume that the amplitude of the noise RMS is scaled by a constant value, alpha, relative to a…

[abridged] We constrain a phenomenological dark radiation (DR) framework consisting of free-streaming and fluid-like components, providing a model-independent extension of the standard radiation sector. Using Planck CMB data, DESI DR2 BAO…

The natural approach to a spectral analysis of data distributed on the sky employs spherical harmonic decomposition. A common problem encountered in practical astronomy is the lack of full sky coverage in the available data. For example,…

New determinations are presented of the cosmic infrared background monopole brightness in the Planck HFI bands from 100 GHz to 857 GHz. Planck was not designed to measure the monopole component of sky brightness, so cross-correlation of the…

The cosmic infrared background from galaxies should have a minimum fluctuation of the order of 10\% on angular scales probed by the DIRBE (Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment) on board COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer). We present the…

The two-year COBE-DMR 53 and 90 GHz sky maps are used to determine the normalization of inflationary, cosmological constant dominated, cold dark matter models. Although the COBE-DMR data prefer a nearly critical value for the total density,…

Using the covariant formalism developed in a companion paper (paper I), we derive observational constraint on the Brans-Dicke model in a flat FLRW universe with cosmological constant and cold dark matter. The CMB observations we use include…

From analysis of the DIRBE weekly averaged sky maps, we have detected substantial flux in the 60 and 100 micron channels in excess of expected zodiacal and Galactic emission. Two methods are used to separate zodiacal light from more distant…

This paper is devoted to studying the CIB through its correlation properties. We studied the limits on CIB anisotropy in the near IR (1.25, 2.2, and 3.5 \um, or $J,\;K,\;L$) bands at a scale of 0.7\deg\ using the COBE\footnote{ The National…

Strong gravitational lensing time-delay measurements, together with the distance sum rule (DSR), offer a model-independent approach to probe the geometry and expansion of the universe without relying on a fiducial cosmological model. In…

Cosmic microwave background (CMB) photons are deflected by large-scale structure through gravitational lensing. This secondary effect introduces higher-order correlations in CMB anisotropies, which are used to reconstruct lensing…

The cosmic infrared background (CIB) traces star-forming galaxies throughout cosmic history, with emission peaking at $z\sim1-2$. CIB anisotropies are present at the far-infrared frequencies observed by cosmic microwave background (CMB)…

The COBE satellite has provided the only comprehensive multi-frequency full-sky observations of the microwave sky available today. Assessment of the observations requires a detailed likelihood analysis to extract the maximum amount of…

Recent observational progress has led to the establishment of the standard $\Lambda$CDM model for cosmology. This development is based on different cosmological probes that are usually combined through their likelihoods at the latest stage…

Abbreviated abstract of an invited talk at the International Cosmic Ray Conference in Calgary, July 1993: The results from the COBE satellite are in close agreement with the predictions of the standard hot Big Bang model, suggesting that…

Recent progress in cosmology has relied on combining different cosmological probes. In earlier work, we implemented an integrated approach to cosmology where the probes are combined into a common framework at the map level. This has the…
