Testing Global Isotropy of Three-Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Data: Temperature Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examine statistical isotropy of large scale anisotropies of the Internal Linear Combination (ILC) map, based on three year WMAP data. Our study reveals no significant deviation from statistical isotropy on large angular scales of 3-year ILC map. Comparing statistical isotropy of 3-year ILC map and 1-year ILC map, we find a significant improvement in 3-year ILC map which can be due to the gain model, improved ILC map processing and foreground minimization.

Measuring Statistical Isotropy of CMB Anisotropy
The statistical expectation values of the temperature fluctuations and polarization of cosmic microwave background (CMB) are assumed to be preserved under rotations of the sky. We investigate the statistical isotropy (SI) of the CMB maps recently measured by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) using the bipolar spherical harmonic formalism proposed in Hajian & Souradeep 2003 for CMB...
