CMB Neutrino Mass Bounds and Reionization
Current cosmic microwave background bounds on the sum of the neutrino masses assume a sudden reionization scenario described by a single parameter that determines the onset of reionization. We investigate the bounds on the neutrino mass in a more general reionization scenario based on a principal co...
