Scientific paper

Temperature fluctuations of the microwave background result from a stochastic process which gives rise to outbursts' appearing as hot and cold spots in the brightness distribution delta-T/T over the sky. The statistical and astrophysical properties of such spots are considered, in particular the number of spots generated by density perturbations with a Zeldovich (1969) spectrum. It is shown that such spots should be detectable by modern sky surveys with temperature sensitivities of 0.1 mK or less.
