Euclid preparation: IX. EuclidEmulator2-power spectrum emulation with massive neutrinos and self-consistent dark energy perturbations

Yi Wang, Georges Meylan, Gianluca Castignani

We present a new, updated version of the EuclidEmulator (called EuclidEmulator2), a fast and accurate predictor for the nonlinear correction of the matter power spectrum. 2 per cent level accurate emulation is now supported in the eight-dimensional paramet ...

Range-based underwater target localization using an autonomous surface vehicle: Observability analysis

In the field of marine robotics, the problem of range based underwater target localization can be defined as that of localizing an unknown - fixed or moving - target from a surface vehicle called the tracker, using range information available about the tar ...

Influence of backreaction of electric fields and Schwinger effect on inflationary magnetogenesis

Oleksandr Sobol

We study the generation of electromagnetic fields during inflation when the conformal invariance of Maxwell's action is broken by the kinetic coupling f(2)(phi)F mu nu F mu nu of the electromagnetic field to the inflaton field phi We consider the case wher ...

The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: tomographic BAO analysis of DR12 combined sample in configuration space

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib

We perform a tomographic baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) analysis using the two-point galaxy correlation function measured from the combined sample of Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey Data Release 12 (BOSS DR12), which covers the redshift range ...

The extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: a cosmological forecast

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac

We present a science forecast for the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) survey. Focusing on discrete tracers, we forecast the expected accuracy of the baryonic acoustic oscillation (BAO), the redshift-space distortion (RSD) measureme ...

Robustness of cosmic neutrino background detection in the cosmic microwave background

Julien Lesgourgues, Benjamin Audren

The existence of a cosmic neutrino background can be probed indirectly by CMB experiments, not only by measuring the background density of radiation in the universe, but also by searching for the typical signatures of the fluctuations of free-streaming spe ...

Cosmological implications of baryon acoustic oscillation measurements

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Schlegel, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac

We derive constraints on cosmological parameters and tests of dark energy models from the combination of baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements with cosmic microwave background (CMB) data and a recent reanalysis of Type Ia supernova (SN) data. In p ...

Planck 2013 results. XVI. Cosmological parameters

Xin Chen, Julien Lesgourgues

This paper presents the first cosmological results based on Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and lensing-potential power spectra. We find that the Planck spectra at high multipoles (l greater than or similar to 40) a ...

Scale-invariant alternatives to general relativity

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Diego Blas Temino, Daniel Zenhäusern

We study the general class of gravitational field theories constructed on the basis of scale invariance (and therefore absence of any mass parameters) and invariance under transverse diffeomorphisms, which are the 4-volume conserving coordinate transformat ...

Dark goo: bulk viscosity as an alternative to dark energy

Julien Lesgourgues

We present a simple (microscopic) model in which bulk viscosity plays a role in explaining the present acceleration of the universe. The effect of bulk viscosity on the Friedmann equations is to turn the pressure into an "effective" pressure containing the ...

Scale-Invariant Models of Gravity and Particle Physics and their Cosmological Implications

Daniel Zenhäusern

Currently, the best theoretical description of fundamental matter and its gravitational interaction is given by the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics and Einstein's theory of General Relativity (GR). These theories contain a number of seemingly unrel ...

3D-Spiral small antenna design and realization for biomedical telemetry in the MICS band

Juan Ramon Mosig, Anja Skrivervik, Jean-François Zürcher, Francesco Merli

This work presents the design and realization procedure of small implantable antenna for biotelemetry applications. The radiator occupies a volume smaller than 3 cm(3) (without its biocompatible insulation), is well matched within the Medical Implanted Com ...

Model independent constraints on mass-varying neutrino scenarios

Julien Lesgourgues

Models of dark energy in which neutrinos interact with the scalar field supposed to be responsible for the acceleration of the Universe usually imply a variation of the neutrino masses on cosmological time scales. In this work we propose a parametrization ...
