Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping gravitational lensing of the CMB using local likelihoods

TL;DR: In this paper, the average curvature of the potential over small local regions is estimated using Bayesian techniques, and these local curvatures are then used to construct an estimate of a low pass filter of the gravitational potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

A generative model of galactic dust emission using variational autoencoders

TL;DR: In this article, a Variational Auto Encoder (VAE) is applied to maps of the intensity of emission from interstellar dust as inferred from Planck sky maps and demonstrate its ability to simulate new samples with similar summary statistics as the training set, provide fits to emission maps withheld from the training data, and produce constrained realizations.

A Measurement of the CMB Temperature Power Spectrum and Constraints on Cosmology from the SPT-3G 2018 TT/TE/EE Data Set

TL;DR: In this article , the authors present a sample-variance-limited measurement of the temperature power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using observations of a ∼1500 × 1.2 GHz field made by SPT-3G in 2018.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testing inflation with the cosmic microwave background.

TL;DR: An appropriate combination of a medium-angle and a small-angle CMB observation can test the inflation hypothesis because inflation cannot explain a high signal in one experiment and a low signal in the other.
Journal ArticleDOI

CMB-S4 and the hemispherical variance anomaly

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors generate realizations of polarization maps constrained by the temperature data and predict the distribution of the hemispherical variance in polarization considering two different sky coverage scenarios possible in CMB-S4: full Ecliptic north coverage and just the portion of the North that can be observed from a ground-based telescope at the high Chilean Atacama plateau.
