Extended Anomalous Foreground Emission in the Wmap 3-year Data
We study the spectral and morphological characteristics of the diffuse Galactic emission in the WMAP temperature data using a template-based multi-linear regression, and obtain the following results. 1. We confirm previous observations of a bump in the dust-correlated spectrum, consistent with the Draine & Lazarian spinning dust model. 2. We also confirm the “haze” signal in the inner Galaxy, a...
متن کاملForeground contamination of the WMAP CMB maps from the perspective of the matched circle test
WMAP has provided CMB maps of the full sky. The raw data is subject to foreground contamination, in particular near to the Galactic plane. Foreground cleaned maps have been derived, e.g., the internal linear combination (ILC) map of Bennett et al. (2003), and the reduced foreground TOH map of Tegmark et al. (2003). Using S statistics we examine whether residual foreground contamination is left ...
متن کاملReappraising foreground contamination in the COBE-DMR data
With the advent of all-sky Hα surveys it is possible to determine a reliable free-free template of the diffuse interstellar medium (Dickinson, Davies & Davis 2003) which can be used in conjunction with the synchrotron and dust templates to correct CMB observations for diffuse Galactic foregrounds. We have used the COBE-DMR data at 31.5, 53 and 90 GHz and employed cross-correlation techniques to...
متن کاملNon-Gaussianity due to Possible Residual Foreground Signals in WMAP 1st-year Data Using Spherical Wavelet Approaches
We perform multi-scale non-Gaussianity detection and localization to the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) 1st-year data in both wavelet and real spaces. Such an analysis is facilitated by spherical wavelet transform and inverse transform techniques developed by the YAWtb team. Skewness and kurtosis as test statistics are calculated on scales from about 1 to 30 on the sky as well as t...
متن کاملPhase Analysis of the 1-year Wmap Data and Its Application for the Cmb Foreground Separation
We present a new method based on phase analysis for the Galaxy and foreground component separation from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) signal. This method is based on a prevailing assumption that the phases of the underlying CMB signal should have no or little correlation with those of the foregrounds. This method takes into consideration all the phases of each multipole mode (l ≤ 50, −l...
