We use the binned bispectrum estimator to determine the bispectra of the dust, free-free, synchrotron, and AME galactic foregrounds using maps produced by the Commander component separation method from Planck 2015 data. We find that all of these peak in the squeezed configuration, allowing for potential confusion with in particular the local primordial shape. Applying an additional functionality implemented in the binned bispectrum estimator code, we then use these galactic bispectra as templates in an $f_mathrm{NL}$ analysis of other maps. After testing and validating the method and code with simulations, we show that we detect the dust in the raw 143 GHz map with the expected amplitude (the other galactic foregrounds are too weak at 143 GHz to be detected) and that no galactic residuals are detected in the cleaned CMB map. We also investigate the effect of the mask on the templates and the effect of the choice of binning on a joint dust-primordial $f_mathrm{NL}$ analysis.
Tensor non-Gaussianities are a key ingredient to test the symmetries and the presence of higher spin fields during the inflationary epoch. Indeed, the shape of the three point correlator of the graviton is totally fixed by the symmetries of the de Si
We study the impact that uncertainties on assumed relations between galaxy bias parameters have on constraints of the local PNG $f_{rm NL}$ parameter. We focus on the relation between the linear density galaxy bias $b_1$ and local PNG bias $b_phi$ in
The CMB polarization promises to unveil the dawn of time measuring the gravitational wave background emitted by the Inflation. The CMB signal is faint, however, and easily contaminated by the Galactic foreground emission, accurate measurements of whi
Cross-correlations between Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature and polarization anisotropies and $mu$-spectral distortions have been considered to measure (squeezed) primordial scalar bispectra in a range of scales inaccessible to primary C
Anisotropies in distortions to the frequency spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) can be created through spatially varying heating processes in the early Universe. For instance, the dissipation of small-scale acoustic modes does create d
