The Microwave Background Radiation [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1990 We review the data on the spectrum and isotropy of the microwave background radiation and the astrophysical processes that may produce spectral distortions and anisotropies. As yet no fully satisfactory explanation has been found for the submillimeter excess observed by Matsumotoet al.(1988).
