Scientific paper

The author provides comparative, theoretical analyses of the large-scale anisotropies in the intensity of an extragalactic integrated background (ΔI/I) and in the N(S) source counts (ΔN/N). It is assumed that such anisotropies are generated by small-amplitude density fluctuations on length scales exceeding the Local Supercluster radius, and special reference is made to the far-infrared background and to the IRAS source counts. It is shown that both ΔI/I and ΔN/N are determined by fluctuations in the source number density and by the Doppler shifts generated by the cosmic matter density perturbations.
