Journal ArticleDOI

Planck intermediate results. XXIV. Constraints on variation of fundamental constants

P. A. R. Ade, +168 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the Planck data allow one to improve the constraint on the time variation of the fine structure constant at redshift by about a factor of 5 compared to WMAP data, as well as to break the degeneracy with the Hubble constant.

Planck 2015. XX. Constraints on inflation

P. A. R. Ade, +244 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the implications of the Planck data for cosmic inflation, and found that the scalar spectral index of the primordial power spectrum contains any features, which is consistent with adiabatic initial conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Planck intermediate results. XVI. Profile likelihoods for cosmological parameters

Peter A. R. Ade, +181 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the 2013 Planck likelihood function with a high-precision multi-dimensional minimizer (Minuit), which allows a refinement of the Lambda-cdm best-fit solution with respect to previously released results, and the construction of frequentist confidence intervals using profile likelihoods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Planck intermediate results. XIII. Constraints on peculiar velocities

Peter A. R. Ade, +183 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Planck data combined with the Meta Catalogue of X-ray detected Clusters of galaxies (MCXC) for the study of peculiar motions by searching for evidence of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (kSZ).
Journal ArticleDOI

The Quest for Microwave Foreground X

TL;DR: In this article, the authors cross-correlate the synchrotron template with 10 and 15 GHz cosmic microwave background observations, and find that its spectrum turns over in a manner consistent with spinning dust emission, falling about an order of magnitude below what the Synchron interpretation would predict.
