The observed 21-cm signal from the epoch of reionization will be distorted along the line-of-sight by the peculiar velocities of matter particles. These redshift-space distortions will affect the contrast in the signal and will also make it…
We propose a decomposition method for the spectral peaks in an observed frequency spectrum, which is efficiently acquired by utilizing the Fast Fourier Transform. In contrast to the traditional methods of waveform fitting on the spectrum,…

Analyzing the internal loss characteristics and multimodedness of (integrated) optical devices can prove difficult. One technique to recover this information is to Fourier transform the transmission spectrum of optical components. This…
We measure the cosmic shear power spectrum on large angular scales by cross-correlating the shapes of ~9 million galaxies measured in the optical SDSS survey with the shapes of ~2.7x10^5 radio galaxies measured by the overlapping VLA-FIRST…
We use the Fisher-matrix formalism to investigate whether the galaxy bispectrum in redshift space, $B$, contains additional cosmological information with respect to the power spectrum, $P$. We focus on a $Euclid$-like survey and consider…
Matrix inversion problems are often encountered in experimental physics, and in particular in high-energy particle physics, under the name of unfolding. The true spectrum of a physical quantity is deformed by the presence of a detector,…
A first statistical detection of the 21-cm Epoch of Reionization (EoR) is on the horizon, as cosmological volumes of the Universe become accessible via the adoption of low-frequency interferometers. We explore the impact which non-identical…
A method is presented for investigating the periodic signal content of time series in which a number of signals is present, such as arising from the observation of multiperiodic oscillating stars in observational asteroseismology. Standard…
The present spatial distribution of galaxies in the Universe is non-Gaussian, with 40% skewness in 50 Mpc/h spheres, and remarkably little is known about the information encoded in it about cosmological parameters beyond the power spectrum.…
A stochastic EDQNM approach is used to investigate self-similar decaying isotropic turbulence at high Reynolds number ($400 \leq Re_\lambda \leq 10^4$). The realistic energy spectrum functional form recently proposed by Meyers & Meneveau is…
We allow a more general (step-function) form of the primordial power spectrum than the usual featureless power-law Harrison--Zeldovich (with spectral index n=1) power spectrum, and fit it to the latest Cosmic Microwave Background data sets.…
We propose a Bayesian tensor-on-tensor regression approach to predict a multidimensional array (tensor) of arbitrary dimensions from another tensor of arbitrary dimensions, building upon the Tucker decomposition of the regression…
