(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2017)
We perform an investigation of quadru- and octopolar asymmetry in the CMB data by expanding the on the study of alignment and angular clustering of the dipole components of the CMB power distribution across multipoles l = ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2008)
In between the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and the instrument there are other sources of radiation, called foregrounds. The foregrounds radiate in the same frequency bands as the background, and cause contamination ...

Observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background is impaired by other astrophysical sources that also radiate in the microwave spectrum. These other, non-CMB sources are known as foregrounds. In this thesis, three different ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2015)
The ΛCDM model used in modern cosmology has major theoretical problems. To attempt to solve these many modified gravity theories have been proposed. We calculate velocity statistics (streaming pair-wise velocities and the ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2015)
In 2013 a new metric called TARDIS was introduced. This metric was published by Tippet and Tsang, and described a time machine. This thesis uses numerical methods to explore properties of this new metric. We start by ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2015)
In this thesis, we investigate statistical properties of the redshift zero matter distribution in disformal gravity through N-body simulations. The disformal model studied here is a conformally coupled field in a symmetron ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)
The gravitational redshift in clusters of galaxies can be measured to probe gravity as was first done by Wojtak et al. (2011). Using N -body simulations we are able to analyze the gravitational redshift profiles for the ...
