The Damping Tail of Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies
Open accessAbstract
By decomposing the damping tail of cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies into a series of transfer functions representing individual physical effects, we provide ingredients that will aid in the reconstruction of the cosmological model from small-scale CMB anisotropy data. We accurately calibrate the model-independent effects of diffusion and reionization damping, which provide potentially the most robust information on the background cosmology. Removing these effects, we uncover model-dependent processes, such as the acoustic peak modulation and gravitational enhancement, that can help distinguish between alternate models of structure formation and provide windows into the evolution of fluctuations at various stages in their growth.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
