Abstract: | The discovery of the 3K microwave background radiation (MBR) and its interpretation as a relict of the hot big bang was probably the most important
observation that led to the elevation of the hot big bang model to the status of a ‘Standard Model’. The temperature of this
background is consistent with the primordial nucleosynthesis hypothesis. Detailed measurements of the spectrum and angular
anisotropy of this radiation background have been found — within the measurement errors - to be consistent with the expectations
of the Standard Model and with the formation of structure from the gravitational growth of primordial seed density perturbations
within this framework. |
