We construct a map of the time derivative of the gravitational potential traced by SDSS Luminous Red Galaxies. The potential decays on large scales due to cosmic acceleration, leaving an imprint on cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation through the integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect. With a template fit, we directly measure this signature on the CMB at a 2-sigma confidence level. The measurement is consistent with the cross-correlation statistic, strengthening the claim that dark energy is indeed the cause of the correlation. This new approach potentially simplifies the cosmological interpretation. Our constructed linear ISW map shows no evidence for degree-scale cold and hot spots associated with supervoid and supercluster structures. This suggests that the linear ISW effect in a concordance Lambda-CDM cosmology is insufficient to explain the strong CMB imprints from these structures that we previously reported.

Cosmic structures leave an imprint on the microwave background radiation through the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect. We construct a template map of the linear signal using the SDSS-III Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Survey at redshift 0.43 < z < 0.65. We
verify the imprint of this map on the Planck CMB temperature map at the 97% confidence level and show consistency with the density-temperature cross-correlation measurement. Using this ISW reconstruction as a template we investigate the presence of ISW sources and further examine the properties of the Granett-Neyrinck-Szapudi supervoid and supercluster catalogue. We characterise the three-dimensional density profiles of these structures for the first time and demonstrate that they are significant structures. Model fits demonstrate that the supervoids are elongated along the line-of-sight and we suggest that this special orientation may be picked out by the void-finding algorithm in photometric redshift space. We measure the mean temperature profiles in Planck maps from public void and cluster catalogues. In an attempt to maximise the stacked ISW signal we construct a new catalogue of super-structures based upon local peaks and troughs of the gravitational potential. However, we do not find a significant correlation between these structures and the CMB temperature.
We present a map of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies induced by the late Integrated Sachs Wolfe effect. The map is constructed by combining the information of the WMAP 7-yr CMB data and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) through a linea
r filter. This combination improves the quality of the map that would be obtained using information only from the Large Scale Structure data. In order to apply the filter, a given cosmological model needs to be assumed. In particular, we consider the standard LCDM model. As a test of consistency, we show that the reconstructed map is in agreemet with the assumed model, which is also favoured against a scenario where no correlation between the CMB and NVSS catalogue is considered.
We show that linear redshift distortions in the galaxy distribution can affect the ISW galaxy-temperature signal, when the galaxy selection function is derived from a redshift survey. We find this effect adds power to the ISW signal at all redshifts
and is larger at higher redshifts. Omission of this effect leads to an overestimation of the dark energy density $Omega_Lambda$ as well as an underestimation of statistical errors. We find a new expression for the ISW Limber equation which includes redshift distortions, though we find that Limber equations for the ISW calculation are ill-suited for tomographic calculations when the redshift bin width is small. The inclusion of redshift distortions provides a new cosmological handle in the ISW spectrum, which can help constrain dark energy parameters, curvature and alternative cosmologies. Code is available on request and will soon be added as a module to the iCosmo platform (http://www.icosmo.org)
In this paper, we estimate the cross-correlation power spectra between the Planck 2018 cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropy map and the unresolved $gamma$-ray background (UGRB) from the 9-years Fermi-Large Area Telescope (LAT) dat
a. In this analysis, we use up to nine energy bins over a wide energy range of [0.631, 1000] GeV from the Fermi-LAT UGRB data. Firstly, we find that the Fermi data with the energy ranges [1.202, 2.290] GeV and [17.38, 36.31] GeV show the positive evidence for the Integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect at $1.8sigma$ confidence level, and the significance would be increased to $2.7sigma$ when using these two energy bins together. Secondly, we apply the single power-law model to normalize the amplitude and use all the nine Fermi energy bins to measure the significance of the ISW effect, we obtained ${rm A_{amp}}=0.95 pm 0.53$ ($68%$ C.L.). For the robustness test, we implement a null hypothesis by randomizing the Fermi mock maps of nine energy bins and obtain the non-detection of ISW effect, which confirms that the ISW signal comes from the Fermi-LAT diffuse $gamma$-ray data and is consistent with the standard $Lambda$CDM model prediction essentially. We use a cross-correlation coefficient to show the relation between different energy bins. Furthermore, we vary the cut ranges $|b|$ of galactic plane on the mask of Fermi map and carefully check the consequent influence on the ISW signal detection.
I present to this conference our latest measurements of the integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect. After a brief review of the reasons for which this effect arises and of the technique to detect it by cross-correlating the cosmic microwave background (
CMB) with the large scale structure of the Universe (LSS), I describe the current state of the art measurement. This is obtained from a combined analysis of six different galaxy datasets, and has a significance level of ~ 4.5 sigma. I then describe the cosmological implications, which show agreement with a flat LCDM model with Omega_m = 0.20 +0.19 -0.11 at 95% confidence level. I finally show how these data can be used to constrain modified gravity theories, focusing in particular on the Dvali-Gabadaze-Porrati (DGP) model.
