The PLANCK satellite mission has been launched the 14th of May 2009 and is dedicated to the measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) in temperature and polarization. The presence of diffuse galactic polarized emission contaminates the measurement of the CMB anisotropies, in particular in polarization. Therefore a good knowledge of these emissions is needed to the accuracy required for PLANCK. In this context, we have developed and implemented a coherent 3D model of the two main polarized galactic emissions : synchrotron radiation and thermal dust. We have compared these models to the WMAP and ARCHEOPS data and to the 408 MHz all-sky continuum survey. From this, we are able to estimate the contribution of polarized foreground emissions to the polarized CMB radiation measured with PLANCK.

We develop a method to constrain non-isotropic features of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization, of a type expected to arise in some models describing quantum gravity effects on light propagation. We describe the expected signatures of this
kind of anomalous light propagation on CMB photons, showing that it will produce a non-isotropic birefringence effect, i.e. a rotation of the CMB polarization direction whose observed amount depends in a peculiar way on the observation direction. We also show that the sensitivity levels expected for CMB polarization studies by the emph{Planck} satellite are sufficient for testing these effects if, as assumed in the quantum-gravity literature, their magnitude is set by the minute Planck length.
In cosmologies with massive neutrinos, the galaxy bias defined with respect to the total matter field (cold dark matter, baryons, and non-relativistic neutrinos) depends on the sum of the neutrino masses $M_{ u}$, and becomes scale-dependent even on
large scales. This effect has been usually neglected given the sensitivity of current surveys, but becomes a severe systematic for future surveys aiming to provide the first detection of non-zero $M_{ u}$. The effect can be corrected for by defining the bias with respect to the density field of cold dark matter and baryons instead of the total matter field. In this work, we provide a simple prescription for correctly mitigating the neutrino-induced scale-dependent bias effect in a practical way. We clarify a number of subtleties regarding how to properly implement this correction in the presence of redshift-space distortions and non-linear evolution of perturbations. We perform a MCMC analysis on simulated galaxy clustering data that match the expected sensitivity of the textit{Euclid} survey. We find that the neutrino-induced scale-dependent bias can lead to important shifts in both the inferred mean value of $M_{ u}$, as well as its uncertainty. We show how these shifts propagate to other cosmological parameters correlated with $M_{ u}$, such as the cold dark matter physical density $Omega_{cdm} h^2$ and the scalar spectral index $n_s$. In conclusion, we find that correctly accounting for the neutrino-induced scale-dependent bias will be of crucial importance for future galaxy clustering analyses. We encourage the cosmology community to correctly account for this effect using the simple prescription we present in our work. The tools necessary to easily correct for the neutrino-induced scale-dependent bias will be made publicly available in an upcoming release of the Boltzmann solver texttt{CLASS}.
Cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies encode the history of the universe, which manifest itself in the angular power spectrum. We test the angular power spectra of small patches from the ESA $textit{Planck}$ data. Known variation
s in the power spectra from small patches reveal informative details such as the gravitational lensing and the Doppler boosting effect. We compute the relative shifts of power spectra via comparing patches selected randomly from the CMB. We visualize the relative shifts on a full-sky HEALPix grid (a feature map) and analyze the statistical properties on the full-sky map. We find the regions contain the Cold Spot and the Draco supervoid have large relative shifts to large scales. We also find a dipole on the generated feature map comparing with simulations. We discuss possible ways to resolve this dipole on the feature map, including foregrounds, solar dipole systematics, and the uncertainty in our method.
If the large scale structure of the Universe was created, even partially, via Zeldovich pancakes, than the fluctuations of the CMB radiation should be formed due to bulk comptonization of black body spectrum on the contracting pancake. Approximate fo
rmulas for the CMB energy spectrum after bulk comptonization are obtained. The difference between comptonized energy spectra of the CMB due to thermal and bulk comptonization may be estimated by comparison of the plots for the spectra in these two cases.
We present developing of method of the numerical analysis of polarization in the Gauss--Legendre Sky Pixelization (GLESP) scheme for the CMB maps. This incorporation of the polarization transforms in the pixelization scheme GLESP completes the creati
on of our new method for the numerical analysis of CMB maps. The comparison of GLESP and HEALPix calculations is done.
