Scientific paper

Observations were made from the United States Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station during the austral summer of 1988-89 to search for spatial anisotropy in the submillimeter Cosmic Microwave Background. Three 30'×30' regions of the sky were observed at 350 μm, 450 μm, and 600 μm with the University of Chicago 32-Channel Submillimeter Photometer and a 1.2-meter off-axis parabolic telescope, designed and constructed at AT&T Bell Laboratories. Reimaging optics gave each of the 32 bolometers in the array a 5-arc minute field of view. The search is sensitive to fluctuations on all angular scales between 5- and 30-arc minutes.
