We compute the expected angular power spectrum of the cosmic Far Infrared Background (FIRB). We find that the signal due to source correlations dominates the shot--noise for $\ell \la 1000$ and results in anisotropies with rms amplitudes…

Some theoretical models for the early Universe predict a spike-type enhancement in the primordial power spectrum on a small scale, which would result in forming early-formed dark matter halos~(EFHs). Some recent studies have claimed to have…
We introduce here a cross-correlation term between CMB lensing and galaxy intrinsic alignment, noted hereby as $\phi I$. This effect acts as a contaminant to the cross-correlation between CMB lensing and galaxy lensing. The latter…
