A MEASUREMENT OF Ω FROM THE NORTH AMERICAN TEST FLIGHT OF Boomerang
We use the angular power spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background, measured during the North American test flight of the Boomerang experiment, to constrain the geometry of the universe. Within the class of Cold Dark Matter models, we find that the overall fractional energy density of the universe, Ω, is constrained to be 0.85 ≤ Ω ≤ 1.25 at the 68% confidence level. Combined with the COBE mea...
متن کاملInvestigating the Early Universe with the Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropy
Several experiments (including BOOMERanG, MAXIMA, DASI, VSA, CBI) have recently detected very low contrast structures in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the otherwise isotropic radiation coming from the early Universe. These structures have a contrast of the order of 25 ppm and a dominant angular size of one degree. In the current cosmological model, these structures result from acoustic...
متن کاملModel Independent Primordial Power Spectrum from Maxima, Boomerang, and DASI Data
A model-independent determination of the primordial power spectrum of matter density fluctuations could uniquely probe physics of the very early universe, and provide powerful constraints on inflationary models. We parametrize the primordial power spectrum As(k) as an arbitrary function, and deduce its binned amplitude from the cosmic microwave background radiation anisotropy (CMB) measurements...

We describe the BOOMERanG experiment and its main result, i.e. the measurement of the large scale curvature of the Universe. BOOMERanG is a balloon-borne microwave telescope with sensitive cryogenic detectors. BOOMERanG has measured the angular distribution of the Cosmic Microwave Background on ∼ 3% of the sky, with a resolution of ∼ 10 arcmin and a sensitivity of ∼ 20μK per pixel. The resultin...
متن کاملA Measurement of the Primordial Power Spectrum from Maxima and Boomerang Data
Model-independent measurements of the primordial power spectrum of matter density fluctuations provide a unique probe of physics in the very early universe, and can provide powerful constraints on inflationary models. We parametrize the primordial power spectrum A2s(k) as an arbitrary function, and measure its binned amplitude from the cosmic microwave background radiation anisotropy (CMB) data...
