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.

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.

TL;DR: The first searches using CMB polarization for correlations induced by a non-trivial topology with a fundamental domain intersecting or nearly intersecting, the last scattering surface (at comoving distance) were performed by as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the dust and cosmic rays in the Chamaeleon clouds with the results obtained from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and IRAS, and provide average values for the dust properties per gas nucleon in different phases.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the detection, interpretation and removal of the signal resulting from interactions of high energy particles with the Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) using the joint fit of population templates.
