Scientific paper

Some local statistical properties in the microwave sky are analyzed such as mean number of hotspots over the celestial sphere, mean size of a hotspot, mean number of pips at fixed declination, and the 95 percent confidence interval for the threshold of the hottest spot or pip. It is concluded that the best strategy to detect the maximum number of hotspots would be to perform a double beam-switching experiment with a beam resolution and angular beam separation of about 2 deg.
