Several independent measurements have confirmed the existence of fluctuations ($\delta F_{\rm obs}\approx 0.1 \rm nW/m^{2}/sr$ at $3.6 \rm \mu m$) up to degree angular scales in the source-subtracted Near InfraRed Background (NIRB) whose…
Current observations suggest that the universe was reionized sometime before z~6. One way to observe this epoch of the universe is through the Near Infrared Background (NIRB), which contains information about galaxies which may be too faint…
The study of the Cosmic Near-Infrared Background (CIB) light after subtraction of resolved sources can push the limits of current observations and infer the level of galaxy and black hole activity in the early universe. However,…
We measure the spatial fluctuations of the Near-Infrared Extragalactic Background Light (NIREBL) from 2$^{\circ}$ to 20$^{\circ}$ in angular scale at the 1.6 and 2.2 $\mu$m using data obtained with Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIRS) on board…
NICMOS observations of the resolved object fluxes in the Hubble Deep Field North and the Hubble Ultra Deep Field are significantly below the fluxes attributed to a 1.4 - 1.8 microns Near InfraRed Background Excess (NIRBE) from previous low…
The large-scale structure of high-redshift galaxies produces correlated anisotropy in the far-infrared background (FIRB). In regions of the sky where the thermal emission from Galactic dust is well below average, these high-redshift…
Emission from high-$z$ galaxies must unquestionably contribute to the near-infrared background (NIRB). However, this contribution has so far proven difficult to isolate even after subtracting the resolved galaxies to deep levels. Remaining…
The near infrared background (NIRB) is the collective light from unresolved sources observed in the band 1-10 $\mu$m. The measured NIRB angular power spectrum on angular scales $\theta \gtrsim 1$ arcmin exceeds by roughly two order of…
The power spectrum of Near InfraRed Background (NIRB) fluctuations measured at 3.6 $\mu$m by {\tt Spitzer} shows a clustering excess over the known galaxies signal that has been interpreted in terms of early ($z\simgt 13$), accreting…
Cosmic infrared background (CIB) contains emission from epochs inaccessible to current telescopic studies, such as the era of the first stars. We discuss theoretical expectations for the CIB contributions from the early population of…
This paper provides a detailed description of the data reduction and analysis procedures that have been employed in our previous studies of spatial fluctuation of the cosmic infrared background (CIB) using deep Spitzer IRAC observations.…
The cosmic infrared background (IRB) at wavelengths between 1 micron and 3 microns provides a useful probe of early star-formation prior to and during reionization. To explain the high optical depth to electron scattering, as measured by…
Based on a power spectrum analysis of the IRAS ISSA maps, we present the first detection of the Cosmic far-Infrared Background (CIB) fluctuations at 60 and 100 microns. The power spectrum of 12 low cirrus emission regions is characterized…
The near-infrared background between 0.5 $\mu$m to 2 $\mu$m contains a wealth of information related to radiative processes in the universe. Infrared background anisotropies encode the redshift-weighted total emission over cosmic history,…
We model fluctuations in the Cosmic Infrared Background (CIB) arising from known galaxy populations using 233 measured UV, optical and NIR luminosity functions (LF) from a variety of surveys spanning a wide range of redshifts. We compare…
We show that the emission from the first, metal-free stars inside Population III objects (PopIIIs) are needed to explain the level of fluctuations in the Near Infrared Background (NIRB) recently discovered by Kashlinsky et al. (2002), at…
The cosmic infrared background (CIB) contains emissions accumulated over the entire history of the Universe, including from objects inaccessible to individual telescopic studies. The near-IR (~1-10 mic) part of the CIB, and its…
The precision of intensity measurements of the extragalactic X-ray Background (XRB) on an angular scale of about a degree is dominated by spatial fluctuations caused by source confusion noise. X-ray source counts at the flux level…
The cosmic infrared background (CIB) radiation is the cosmic repository for energy release throughout the history of the universe. Using the all-sky data from the COBE DIRBE instrument at wavelengths 1.25 - 100 mic we attempt to measure the…
Spitzer-based source-subtracted cosmic infrared background (CIB) fluctuations at arcminute-to-degree scales indicate the presence of new populations, whereas sub-arcminute power arises from known $z\lesssim 6$ galaxies. We reconstruct the…
