Angular power spectrum of CMB anisotropy from WMAP
The remarkable improvement in the estimates of different cosmological parameters in recent years has been largely spearheaded by accurate measurements of the angular power spectrum of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation. This has required removal of foreground contamination as well as detector noise bias with reliability and precision. Recently, a novel model-independent method for the ...
متن کاملA Blind Estimation of the Power Spectrum of Cmb Anisotropy from Wmap
The angular power spectrum of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation has proved to be an excellent observation to measure different cosmological parameters. In order to extract cosmological parameters precisely we need to remove foreground contamination as well as detector noise bias. In this paper we present a framework to extract CMB angular power spectrum from the multi-frequency observ...

متن کاملThe Joint Large-scale Foreground—cmb Posteriors of the 3-year Wmap Data
Using a Gibbs sampling algorithm for joint CMB estimation and component separation, we compute the large-scale CMB and foreground posteriors of the 3-yr WMAP temperature data. Our parametric data model includes the cosmological CMB signal and instrumental noise, a single power law foreground component with free amplitude and spectral index for each pixel, a thermal dust template with a single f...
متن کاملCMB and foregrounds in WMAP first year data
We perform a blind multi-component analysis of the WMAP 1 year foreground cleaned maps using SMICA (Spectral Matching Independent Component Analysis). We provide a new estimate of the CMB power spectrum as well as the amplitude of the CMB anisotropies across frequency channels. We show that the CMB anisotropies are compatible with temperature fluctuations as expected from the standard paradigm....
