We present new measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization from the final season of the Cosmic Anisotropy Polarization MAPper (CAPMAP). The data set was obtained in winter 2004-2005 with the 7 m antenna in Crawford…
The cosmic microwave background polarization is rich of cosmological information complementary to those from temperature anisotropies. Linear polarization can be decomposed uniquely in two components of opposite parities, called E and B.…
This PhD thesis (defended in 2014) is focused on the estimation of the CMB polarised anisotropies power spectra on a masked sky and on forecasts of constraints set on the primordial universe physics thanks to these anisotropies. After an…
Part of the CMB polarization signal in the direction of galaxy clusters is produced by Thomson scattering of the CMB temperature quadrupole. In principle this allows measurement of the CMB power spectrum harmonic $C_2(z)$ with higher…
Estimating the cross-correlation power spectra of cosmic microwave background (CMB), in particular, the T B and EB spectra, is important for testing parity symmetry in cosmology and diagnosing insidious instruments systematics. The…
The measurements of the angular power spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy has proved crucial to the emergence of cosmology as a precision science in recent years. In this remarkable data rich period, the limitations…
Most analysis of Cosmic Microwave Background spherical harmonic coefficients a_lm has focused on estimating the power spectrum C_l=<|a_lm|^2> rather than the coefficients themselves. We present a minimum-variance method for measuring a_lm…
As the era of high precision cosmology approaches, the empirically determined power spectrum of the microwave background anisotropy $C_l$ will provide a crucial test for cosmological theories. We present an exact semi-analytic framework for…
We report a measurement of the B-mode polarization power spectrum in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using the POLARBEAR experiment in Chile. The faint B-mode polarization signature carries information about the Universe's entire…
Multi-frequency observations are needed to separate the CMB from foregrounds and accurately extract cosmological information from the data. The Analytical Blind Separation (ABS) method is dedicated to extracting the CMB power spectrum from…
In the recent years, the internal-linear-combination (ILC) method was investigated extensively in the context of reconstruction of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature anisotropy signal using observations obtained by WMAP and…
The effect of weak gravitational lensing on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies and polarization will provide access to cosmological information that cannot be obtained from the primary anisotropies alone. We…
We report an improved measurement of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) $B$-mode polarization power spectrum with the POLARBEAR experiment at 150 GHz. By adding new data collected during the second season of observations (2013-2014) to…
We investigate the performance of a simple Bayesian fitting approach to correct the cosmic microwave background (CMB) B-mode polarization for gravitational lensing effects in the recovered probability distribution of the tensor-to-scalar…
We present a new method for multi-component power spectra estimation in multi-frequency observations of the CMB. Our method is based on matching a model to the cross and auto power spectra of observed maps. All the component power spectra…
It is known that in contrast with the E-mode polarization, the B-mode polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background cannot be generated by the Compton scattering in the case of scalar mode of metric perturbation. However it is possible to…
A new method for estimating the power spectrum $C_l$ from cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps was recently presented by the author and applied to the 2 year COBE data. It was found that the spectral resolution $\Delta l$ for COBE could…
We present a generalisation of the standard pseudo-$C_\ell$ approach for power spectrum estimation to the case of spin-$s$ fields weighted by a general positive-definite weight matrix that couples the different spin components of the field…
We revisit the problem of exact CMB likelihood and power spectrum estimation with the goal of minimizing computational cost through linear compression. This idea was originally proposed for CMB purposes by Tegmark et al.\ (1997), and here…
It has been pointed out that the spurious Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) B-mode polarization signals caused by the absorption of the CMB monopole component due to the Galactic interstellar matter, called the CMB shadow, degrade the…
