Abstract
The small-scale CMB angular power spectrum contains many contaminants from secondary anisotropies created by large-scale structures. Although their contribution is taken into account in the analyses, their cosmological dependence is often ignored. We propose a new analysis of SPT data focusing on the cosmological contributions of the Sunyaev Zel’dovich effects (tSZ and kSZ). After modelling these two effects and building a power spectrum emulator, we show that using the cosmological information of the tSZ and kSZ in addition to that of the primordial CMB contained in the small-scale SPT data provides comparable constraints on the reionisation history to those of the large-scale data of Planck.
