A set of new mathematical results on the theory of Gaussian random fields is presented, and the application of such calculations in cosmology to treat questions of structure formation from…
Planck 2013 results. XVI. Cosmological parameters
- P. Ade, N. Aghanim, A. Zonca
- Physics
- 20 March 2013
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…
Excursion set mass functions for hierarchical Gaussian fluctuations
- J. Bond, S. Cole, G. Efstathiou, N. Kaiser
- Physics
- 1 October 1991
Most schemes for determining the mass function of virialized objects from the statistics of the initial density perturbation field suffer from the «cloud-in-cloud» problem of miscounting the number…
Planck 2018 results. X. Constraints on inflation
- Planck Collaboration Y. Akrami, F. Arroja, A. Zonca
- Physics
- 17 July 2018
We report on the implications for cosmic inflation of the 2018 release of the Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy measurements. The results are fully consistent with those reported…
Planck 2018 results

- PhysicsAstronomy & Astrophysics
- 15 January 2018
The study of polarized dust emission has become entwined with the analysis of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization in the quest for the curl-like B-mode polarization from primordial…
A flat Universe from high-resolution maps of the cosmic microwave background radiation
- P. Bernardis, P. Ade, N. Vittorio
- PhysicsNature
- 27 April 2000
The first images of resolved structure in the microwave background anisotropies over a significant part of the sky are reported, consistent with that expected for cold dark matter models in a flat (euclidean) Universe, as favoured by standard inflationary models.
The Santa Barbara Cluster Comparison Project: A Comparison of Cosmological Hydrodynamics Solutions
We have simulated the formation of an X-ray cluster in a cold dark matter universe using 12 different codes. The codes span the range of numerical techniques and implementations currently in use,…

- Planck Collaboration R. Adam, P. Ade, A. Zonca
- Physics
- 20 March 2013
The European Space Agency’s Planck satellite, dedicated to studying the early Universe and its subsequent evolution, was launched 14 May 2009 and has been scanning the microwave and submillimetre sky…
Planck 2013 results. XXII. Constraints on inflation
- P. Ade, N. Aghanim, A. Zonca
- Physics
- 20 March 2013
We present the implications for cosmic inflation of the Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies in both temperature and polarization based on the full Planck survey,…
