The Planck satellite was launched in 2009 by the European Space Agency to study the properties of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). An expected result of the Planck data analysis is the distinction of the various contaminants of the…

The imaging of galaxy clusters through the Sunyaev--Zel'dovich effect is a valuable tool to probe the thermal pressure of the intra-cluster gas, especially in the outermost regions where X-ray observations suffer from photon statistics. For…

Observations of galaxy clustering are made in redshift space, which results in distortions to the underlying isotropic distribution of galaxies. These redshift-space distortions (RSD) not only degrade important features of the matter…
