Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Anisotropy Induced by Cosmic Strings [PDF]
We report on a current investigation of the anisotropy pattern induced by cosmic strings on the cosmic microwave background radiation (MBR). We have numerically evolved a network of cosmic strings from a redshift of $Z = 100$ to the present and calculated the anisotropies which they induce.

Nuclear Physics Meets the Sources of the Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays [PDF]
The determination of the injection composition of cosmic ray nuclei within astrophysical sources requires sufficiently accurate descriptions of the source physics and the propagation – apart from controlling astrophysical uncertainties.

Testing Isotropy of Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation [PDF]
We introduce new symmetry-based methods to test for isotropy in cosmic microwave background radiation. Each angular multipole is factored into unique products of power eigenvectors, related multipoles and singular values that provide 2 new rotationally ...

Conformal Invariance and Cosmic Background Radiation [PDF]
The spectrum and statistics of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) are investigated under the hypothesis that scale invariance of the primordial density fluctuations should be promoted to full conformal invariance.

Measurements of the cosmic background radiation [PDF]
Measurements of the attributes of the 2.7-K microwave background radiation (CBR) are reviewed, with emphasis on the analytic phase of CBR studies. Methods for the direct measurement of the CBR spectrum are discussed.

Spectrum of the cosmic background radiation [PDF]
New measurements of the emission spectrum of the night sky have been made in the frequency range from 1.7 to 40 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ using a fully calibrated, liquid-helium-cooled, balloon-borne spectrophotometer.

Kolmogorov Complexity, Cosmic Background Radiation and Irreversibility [PDF]
We discuss the algorithmic information approach to the analysis of the observational data on the Universe. Kolmogorov complexity is proposed as a descriptor of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation maps.

Scaling properties of the cosmic background plasma and radiation [PDF]
Scaling properties of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation are studied using satellite (COBE-DMR maps), balloon-borne and ground-based (combined QMASK map) data. Quantitative consistency is found between the multiscaling properties of the COBE-DMR and QMASK CMB maps.

Impact of the cosmic background radiation on the initial mass function of metal-poor stars [PDF]
We study star cluster formation at low metallicities of Z/Z⊙ = 10−4–10−1 using three-dimensional hydrodynamics simulations. Particular emphasis is put on how the stellar mass distribution is affected by the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB ...
