Interferometric Observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
Radio interferometers are well suited to studies of both total intensity and polarized intensity fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background radiation, and they have been used successfully in measurements of both the primary and secondary anisotropy. Recent observations with the Cosmic Background Imager operating in the Chilean Andes, the Degree Angular Scale Interferometer operating at the...
متن کاملThe microwave background anisotropies: observations.
Most cosmologists now believe that we live in an evolving universe that has been expanding and cooling since its origin about 15 billion years ago. Strong evidence for this standard cosmological model comes from studies of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR), the remnant heat from the initial fireball. The CMBR spectrum is blackbody, as predicted from the hot Big Bang model before ...
متن کاملThe cosmic microwave background radiation.
Radio Astronomy has added greatly to our understanding of the structure and dynamics of the universe. The cosmic microwave background radiation, considered a relic of the explosion at the beginning of the universe some 18 billion years ago, is one of the most powerful aids in determining these features of the universe. This paper is about the discovery of the cosmic microwave background radiati...
متن کاملThe Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
We summarize the theoretical and observational status of the study of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. Its thermodynamic spectrum is a robust prediction of the Hot Big Bang cosmology and has been confirmed observationally. There are now 76 observations of Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy, which we present in a table with references. We discuss the theoretical origins of these an...
متن کاملThe Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
These lectures will attempt to convey the excitement and promise in studies of the microwave radiation left over from the early universe. They are aimed at an audience of experimental high energy physicists. The first lecture will concentrate on how the radiation is characterized, how it and its anisotropies are generated, and the physics that it reveals. The second lecture will concentrate on ...
