The Integrated Sachs-Wolfe Signal from BOSS Super-Structures
  Cosmic structures leave an imprint on the microwave background radiation
through the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect. We construct a template map of the
linear signal using the SDSS-III Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Survey at redshift
0.43 < z < 0.65. We verify the imprint of this map on the Planck CMB
temperature map at the 97% confidence level and show consistency with the
density-temperature cross-correlation measurement. Using this ISW
reconstruction as a template we investigate the presence of ISW sources and
further examine the properties of the Granett-Neyrinck-Szapudi supervoid and
supercluster catalogue. We characterise the three-dimensional density profiles
of these structures for the first time and demonstrate that they are
significant structures. Model fits demonstrate that the supervoids are
elongated along the line-of-sight and we suggest that this special orientation
may be picked out by the void-finding algorithm in photometric redshift space.
We measure the mean temperature profiles in Planck maps from public void and
cluster catalogues. In an attempt to maximise the stacked ISW signal we
construct a new catalogue of super-structures based upon local peaks and
troughs of the gravitational potential. However, we do not find a significant
correlation between these structures and the CMB temperature.
