The cosmic microwave background radiation [PDF]
Physics Reports, 2000 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.

Stringent Limit on Primordial Magnetic Fields from the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2018 Primordial magnetic fields (PMFs), being present before the epoch of cosmic recombination, induce small-scale baryonic density fluctuations. These inhomogeneities lead to an inhomogeneous recombination process that alters the peaks and heights of the ...

Large disparity in cosmic reference frames determined from the sky distributions of radio sources and the microwave background radiation [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 The angular distribution of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) in sky shows a dipole asymmetry, ascribed to the observer's motion (peculiar velocity of the solar system!), relative to the local comoving coordinates.

The cosmic microwave background radiation fluctuations from H i perturbations prior to reionization [PDF]
, 2004 Loeb and Zaldarriaga have recently proposed that observations of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) brightness temperature fluctuations produced by H I inhomogeneities prior to reionization hold the promise of probing the primordial power ...

Neutrinos And Big Bang Nucleosynthesis [PDF]
, 2012 According to the standard models of particle physics and cosmology, there should be a background of cosmic neutrinos in the present Universe, similar to the cosmic microwave photon background.

THE COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND RADIATION* [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1981 Because angular anisotropies and spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background radiation are judged to be inevitable at some level, in a realistic cosmological model, the evidence for spectral distortions and its theoretical implications are described.

Constraints on nonconformal couplings from the properties of the cosmic microwave background radiation. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2013 Certain modified gravity theories predict the existence of an additional, nonconformally coupled scalar field. A disformal coupling of the field to the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is shown to affect the evolution of the energy density in the ...

A New Measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Temperature at z = 1.97 [PDF]
, 1996 We present detections of absorption from the ground state and excited states of C I in the z = 1.9731 damped Lyα system of the QSO 0013-004. The excitation temperature between the J = 0 and J = 1 fine-structure levels of C I is 11.6 ± 1.0 K.
