TL;DR: It is shown that the quadrupole plane and the three octopole planes are far more aligned than previously thought (99.9% C.L.) with the direction of the cosmological dipole and with the equinoxes.

TL;DR: The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) as mentioned in this paper is a deep 120-168 MHz imaging survey that will eventually cover the entire northern sky, where each of the 3170 pointings will be observed for 8 h, which, at most declinations, is sufficient to produce ~5? resolution images with a sensitivity of ~100?Jy/beam and accomplish the main scientific aims of the survey, which are to explore the formation and evolution of massive black holes, galaxies, clusters of galaxies and large-scale structure.

TL;DR: In this article, a phenomenological one-component model of cold dark matter with internal self-interactions is proposed to explain an accelerated expansion of the present universe, suggested from observations of supernovae of type la at high redshift, by introducing an antifrictional force that is selfconsistently exerted on the particles of the cosmic substratum.

TL;DR: In this article, the damping of the primordial power spectrum due to collisional damping and free streaming of WIMPy CDM was analyzed and the results showed that free streaming leads to a CDM power spectrum with a sharp cut-off at about 10−6) M-circle dot.

TL;DR: The first year of the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) observations exhibited statistically significant anomalies compared to the predictions of the standard inflationary big-bang model as discussed by the authors.
