Scientific paper

We present a pedagogical derivation of the Sachs-Wolfe effect, specifically
the factor 1/3 relating the temperature fluctuations to gravitational
potentials. The result arises from a cancellation between gravitational
redshifts and intrinsic temperature fluctuations which can be derived from a
coordinate transformation of the background.
