Scientific paper

The research under this grant resulted in the measurement of anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) on angular scales from 90 degrees to 0.3 degrees. A bolometric radiometer was built with a sensitivity of better than 500 micro K divided by the square root of (Hz). The measurements complement the COBE anisotropy measurement in two ways. The large scale measurements were shown to cross-correlate with the COBE DMR anisotropy detection, confirming the results. The small scale measurements further the understanding of the structure in the CMBR on scales where we can begin to model the early stages in galaxy and galaxy cluster formation.
