POLARBEAR is a cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) polarization experiment located at the Atacama desert in Chile. The science goals of the POLARBEAR experiment are to characterize the B-mode signal from gravitational lensing, as well as to search for the B-mode signal created by primordial gravitational waves (PGWs). POLARBEAR started observations in 2012, and has published a series...

The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) encodes information about the content and evolution of the universe. The presence of light, non-interacting particles impacts the expansion history of the early universe, which alters the temperature and polarization anisotropies of the CMB. In this way, current measurements of the CMB place interesting constraints on the neutrino energy density and mass,...

Oral presentation in parallel session
We report the identification of a positive cross-correlation signal between the unresolved $\gamma$-ray emission, measured by the Fermi Large Area Telescope, and four different galaxy cluster catalogues: WHY18 (infrared galaxies), SDSSDR9 (optical galaxies), MCXCsub and HIFLUGCS (X-ray galaxies). When confronted with a model that traces the Large Scale Structure contribution to the unresolved...
