Cosmic Microwave Background Mini-review

Abstract

A compact overview of the status of CMB anisotropy results and their cosmological interpretation. Section headings: Introduction; CMB Spectrum; Description of CMB Anisotropies; Cosmological Parameters; Physics of Anisotropies; Current Anisotropy Data; CMB Polarization; Complications; Constraints on Cosmological Parameters; Particle Physics Constraints; Fundamental Lessons; and Future Directions. This 2023 replacement is a substantial update compared with earlier versions of this review posted to the arXiv.

18 pages, 6 figures, matches version appearing in the 2023 Review of Particle Physics, available on the PDG web-site at: http://pdg.lbl.gov. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:astro-ph/0601307, arXiv:astro-ph/0406567
