Cross correlation with thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect in cosmic microwave background observation and weak gravitational lensing effect in galaxy imaging survey opens a new window on constraining matter contents in the Universe at…
The next generation weak lensing surveys (i.e., LSST, Euclid and WFIRST) will require exquisite control over systematic effects. In this paper, we address shear calibration and present the most realistic forecast to date for…
Most old distant radio galaxies should be extended X-ray sources due to inverse Compton scattering of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) photons. Such sources can be an important component in X-ray surveys for high redshift clusters, due to…
We report a detection of the coherent distortion of faint galaxies arising from gravitational lensing by foreground structures. This ``cosmic shear'' is potentially the most direct measure of the mass power spectrum, as it is unaffected by…
The lowest multipole moments of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) are smaller than expected for a scale-invariant power spectrum. One possible explanation is a cutoff in the primordial power spectrum below a comoving scale of $k_c…
Since the publication of the results of the Planck satellite mission in 2013, the local and early universes have been considered to be in tension in respect of the determination of amplitude of the matter density spatial fluctuations…
The next generation of proposed galaxy surveys will increase the number of galaxies with photometric redshifts by two orders of magnitude, drastically expanding both redshift range and detection threshold from the current state of the art.…
The distance-redshift relation depends on the amount of matter of each type in the universe. Measurements at different redshifts constrain differing combinations of these matter densities and thus may be used in combination to constrain…
Weak gravitational lensing of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) changes CMB statistics in a nontrivial way, allowing for reconstruction of the lensing potential and the use of these reconstructed maps in determining cosmological…

Fast Radio Bursts (hereafter FRBs) can be used in cosmology by studying the Dispersion Measure (hereafter DM) as a function of redshift. The large scale structure of matter distribution is regarded as a major error budget for such…

Cosmological structures grow differently in theories of gravity which are modified as compared to Einstein's General relativity (GR). Cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuation patterns at the last scattering surface are lensed by these…
In this review, I outline the use of galaxy correlations to constrain cosmological parameters. As with the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the density of dark and baryonic matter imprints important scales on the fluctuations of matter…
