Cosmic microwave background maps from the HACME experiment
Max Tegmark, Angelica de Oliveira-Costa, John Staren +9
We present Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) maps from the Santa Barbara HACME balloon experiment (Staren etal 2000), covering about 1150 square degrees split between two regions i…
Why is the CMB fluctuation level 10^{-5}?
Max Tegmark, Martin Rees
We explore the qualitative changes that would occur if the amplitude Q ~ 10^{-5} of cosmological density fluctuations were different. If is less than about 10^{-6}, the cosmologica…
Analyzing redshift surveys to measure the power spectrum on large scales
Max Tegmark
Upcoming large redshift surveys potentially allow precision measurements of the galaxy power spectrum. To accurately measure P(k) on the largest scales, comparable to the depth of…
Studies of CMB structure at Dec=40. II: Analysis and cosmological interpretation
S. Hancock, C. M. Gutierrez, R. D. Davies +5
We present a detailed analysis of the cosmic microwave background structure in the Tenerife Dec=+40 degrees data. The effect of local atmospheric contributions on the derived fluct…
On the dimensionality of spacetime
Max Tegmark
Some superstring theories have more than one effective low-energy limit, corresponding to classical spacetimes with different dimensionalities. We argue that all but the 3+1-dimens…
Forecasting Cosmic Parameter Errors from Microwave Background Anisotropy Experiments
J. Richard Bond, George Efstathiou, Max Tegmark
Accurate measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies with an angular resolution of a few arcminutes can be used to determine fundamental cosmological paramet…
