Scientific paper

The small-scale anisotropy in pure baryonic universes, with and without a cosmological constant, is calculated. If we restrict ourselves to the inflationary requirement of a flat universe, pure baryonic models are not consistent with the present upper limits on the fine-scale anisotropy even if recourse is made to a cosmological constant Lambda = 1 - Omega0. However, a cold dark matter-dominated model may be consistent with the observations if (Omega0)(h) greater than or equal to 0.05 and Lambda = 1 - omega0. Such a scheme might reconcile the astronomical determinations of Omega0 with the inflationary prediction of a flat universe.
