Redshift space distortions privilege the location of the observer in cosmological redshift surveys, breaking the translational symmetry of the underlying theory. This violation of statistical homogeneity has consequences for the modeling of…
Spectrograph is an optical device that is used to disperse photons of different energies $E$ into distinct directions and space locations, and to take a snapshot of the whole spectrum of photon energies with a spatially sensitive photon…
The "Tapered Gridded Estimator" (TGE) is a novel way to directly estimate the angular power spectrum from radio-interferometric visibility data that reduces the computation by efficiently gridding the data, consistently removes the noise…
We present a new model of the diffuse Galactic synchrotron radiation, concentrating on its angular anisotropies. While previous studies have focussed on either the variation of the emissivity on large (kpc) scales, or on fluctuations due to…
We point out that polarization measurements as planned for the upcoming PLANCK mission can significantly enhance the accuracy of cosmic parameter estimation compared to the temperature anisotropy spectrum alone. In order to illustrate this,…
A large fraction of the information collected by cosmological surveys is simply discarded to avoid lengthscales which are difficult to model theoretically. We introduce a new technique which enables the extraction of useful information from…
We investigate the possibility of detecting in redshift surveys a hemispherical power asymmetry similar to that first reported in CMB observations. We assume the hemispherical asymmetry arises from a linear gradient in comoving coordinates…
Following on our purpose of developing a unified pipeline for large-scale structure data analysis with angular (i.e. harmonic-space) power spectra, we now include the weak lensing effect of magnification bias on galaxy clustering in a…
We describe a fast and accurate method for estimation of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy angular power spectrum --- Monte Carlo Apodised Spherical Transform EstimatoR. Originally devised for use in the interpretation of the…
We implement and further refine the recently proposed method (Kashlinsky, Hern\'andez-Monteagudo & Atrio-Barandela, 2001 - KHA) for a time efficient extraction of the power spectrum from future cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps. The…
A grand challenge of the 21st century cosmology is to accurately estimate the cosmological parameters of our Universe. A major approach to estimating the cosmological parameters is to use the large-scale matter distribution of the Universe.…
In this paper, we study how to directly measure the effect of peculiar velocities in the observed angular power spectra. We do this by constructing a new anti-symmetric estimator of Large Scale Structure using different dark matter tracers.…
Light beams carrying orbital angular momentum are key resources in modern photonics. In many applications, the ability of measuring the complex spectrum of structured light beams in terms of these fundamental modes is crucial. Here we…
We study the projected clustering of photometric luminous red galaxies from the DESI Legacy Survey, combining their angular power spectrum, bispectrum, and cross-correlation with maps of the CMB lensing convergence from the Planck…
A crucial issue in cosmology is the determination of the fluctuation power spectrum.The standard picture of the matter clustering, the Cold Dark Matter model (and its variant), assumes that,on scales smaller than a certain ``flattening…
In this thesis we investigate several aspects related to the theory of fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background. We develop a new algorithm to calculate the angular power spectrum of the anisotropies which is two orders of magnitude…
Reliable extraction of cosmological information from observed cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps may require removal of strongly foreground contaminated regions from the analysis. In this article, we employ an artificial neural network…
Stars play a decisive role in our Universe, from its beginning throughout its complete evolution. For a thorough understanding of their properties, evolution, and physics of their outer envelopes, stellar spectra need to be analyzed by…
The Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) holds information about almost all the fundamental cosmological parameters, and by performing a likelihood analysis of high precision CMBR fluctuation data, these parameters can be inferred.…
Gaussianity and statistical isotropy of the Universe are modern cosmology's minimal set of hypotheses. In this work we introduce a new statistical test to detect observational deviations from this minimal set. By defining the temperature…
