Scientific paper

The authors discuss the results of a balloon flight in which the diffuse sky radiation has been observed at angular scales larger than 6° and in the wavelength regions 150 - 400 and 350 - 3000 μm. Dust emission has been measured at galactic latitudes -20° < b < 80° and found to follow the cosec b law in the region 0° < l < 140° and 180° < l < 360°. Dust contamination was so severe that after subtraction for galactic emission the authors were able only to put an upper limit of 4.5mK on the dipole anisotropy of the cosmic background radiation. An upper limit dT/T = 2×10-4 was obtained for anisotropies at angular scales of 6°.
