Title: Probing cosmology by mapping the microwave sky
Abstract:
Cosmology has advanced tremendously in recent years, transforming from a speculative field to a precision science, as a result of a wealth of data from sensitive instruments. Among these, observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have played a crucial role in revolutionizing our understanding of the Universe. Despite the success of the standard model of cosmology (ΛCDM), many fundamental questions remain unanswered, such as the existence of primordial gravitational waves or new light relic particles, and how to resolve current cosmological tensions.
