A data-driven method calibrates relative CMB polarization angles via cross-correlations without assuming zero isotropic birefringence or primordial EB, forecasting 0.10° and 0.17° uncertainties for SO LAT and Planck at 145 GHz if SO SATs reach 0.08°.
CMBolic supplies analytic emulators for CMB lensing spectra achieving 0.27-0.32% mean fractional error, validated against CLASS on ACT DR6 and Planck lensing data.
A control variate technique using differenced estimates from realistic masked and isotropic simulations reduces the computational cost of CMB lensing bias calculations by a factor of three to five.
A set-screw profiled glue joint in cryogenic struts raises yield strength 10% and ultimate strength 33% over smooth designs, delivers factor-of-safety 7, and shows no damage after three years of 300 K to 100 mK cycling.
No evidence for primordial hotspots in Planck polarization data leads to improved bounds on inflationary particle production couplings for light particles.
Using combined CMB and LSS observations, the analysis sets 95% CL upper limits on oscillatory amplitudes at approximately 2% of A_s and a MAP value of 0.034 for the particle production coupling constant, finding no statistical preference for the extended models.
New upper limits on ultralight axion dark matter fraction (<1.5% at 10^{-26} eV, <9% at 10^{-25} eV at 95% CL) from combined CMB lensing data, plus marginal 2.1σ preference at 10^{-24.5} eV driven by few points.
General-relativistic ray-tracing shows that non-flat accretion disk geometries systematically bias iron Kα-derived black hole spin, coronal height, and inclination estimates when fit with flat-disk models.
Genetic algorithm reconstructs single-field inflationary models with features in the scalar power spectrum that fit Planck 2018 CMB data better by Δχ² ≲ -10 and suggest alternative background parameters.
CMB-only data give f_EDE < 0.07 at 95% CL with no strong AEDE signal, while CMB+DESI yields f_EDE = 0.055^{+0.024}_{-0.047} at 68% CL and lowers Hubble tension to 2.6 sigma.
Forecasts indicate Simons Observatory could reach 1.5-2.3 sigma sensitivity to sub-10 arcsecond lensing from a cosmic texture using temperature and polarization channels, with polarization boosting signal-to-noise by about 67 percent.
Expanded Simons Observatory could measure reheating temperature and inflaton-gluon coupling to a few percent in QCD-driven warm inflation if r=0.01 primordial gravitational waves are found.
AGN emission from central galaxies hides galaxy clusters in SZ surveys; CARMA-based subtraction recovers high-SNR detections in ACT maps for three specific clusters.
BROOM is a Python package that applies ILC and GILC techniques for model-independent separation of CMB, SZ, and foreground signals in microwave data along with diagnostic and simulation utilities.
Forecasts that under 225 N-body simulations suffice for 1-2% accurate HEFT emulators over wide w0waCDM + m_nu parameter space, with as few as 80 for restricted volumes.
Halo model predictions match Websky simulations well for Planck filters but differ by ~20% for Simons Observatory filters, exceeding error bars and consistent with missing higher-order terms in the kSZ signal.
