    PISN-explorer: hunting the descendants of very massive first stars
    The very massive first stars (m > 100 $\rm M_{\odot }$) were fundamental to the early phases of reionization, metal enrichment, and supermassive black hole...

    Planck 2013 results. XVI. Cosmological parameters
    This paper presents the first cosmological results based on Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and lensing-potential power...

    Planck 2013 results. XXIV. Constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity
    The Planck nominal mission cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps yield unprecedented constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity (NG). Using three optimal...

    Planck 2013 results. XXV. Searches for cosmic strings and other topological defects
    Planck data have been used to provide stringent new constraints on cosmic strings and other defects. We describe forecasts of the CMB power spectrum induced by...

    Planck 2015 results. XIX. Constraints on primordial magnetic fields
    We compute and investigate four types of imprint of a stochastic background of primordial magnetic fields (PMFs) on the cosmic microwave background (CMB)...

    Planck 2015 results. XVII. Constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity
    The Planck full mission cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and E-mode polarization maps are analysed to obtain constraints on primordial non...
