Journal ArticleDOI

Arc statistics with numerical cluster models in dark energy cosmologies

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of ray-tracing simulations, using numerical cluster models, aiming at evaluating how the galaxy cluster efficiency for producing strong lensing events changes in different cosmological models with dark energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A systematic approach to the Planck LFI end-to-end test and its application to the DPC Level 1 pipeline

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an example of procedures, test development and analysis successfully applied to a key software project of an ESA mission, where the on-board and ground processing are viewed as a single pipeline, and demonstrate that the scientific and housekeeping processing of the Planck-LFI raw data is correct and meets the project requirements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scalar field dark energy and cosmic microwave background

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare predicted spectra of Cosmic Microvave Background (CMB) anisotropies in tracking scalar field cosmologies with the present CMB data, in order to get constraints on the amount and equation of state of dark energy.
