Cold Spot in CMB could be evidence for a multiverse
... it was initially given, say researchers. The cosmic microwave background (CMB) is radiation left over from the Big...zero (or -270.43 degrees Celsius), however this faint background glow does have temperature fluctuations and some anomalies; one ...

Researchers find substantial observational evidence for a holographic Universe
... have provided what could be the first observational evidence to support a holographic explanation of the Universe. The cosmic microwave background (CMB) is often described as the leftover radiation of the Big Bang and studies of this phenomena offer...

Distant quasars help refine the rate of the expanding Universe
... not as fast as previously thought. The other method in which to provide a measurement of the expansion rate is to use the cosmic microwave background (CMB), the "fossil radiation" or "afterglow" of the Big Bang. Using this data, the team behind the...

Hunting for neutrinos in the ice of Antarctica
.... Yet, there is hope. It has been postulated that a fraction of these charged cosmic rays will interact with the cosmic microwave background, the ubiquitous background residual of the Big Bang, close to the phenomenon that emitted them. In these...

Scientists reveal a new way to test the origins of the Universe
... structures that we see today. Aiding the Inflation hypothesis is the tiny fluctuations in temperature in the otherwise smooth cosmic microwave background (CMB), which is the heat left over from the explosion of the big bang. Using probes such...

Missing matter still lost, as Fast Radio Burst not quite what it seems say researchers
... they help to verify the ?CDM model, a model that attempts to explain the existence and structure of the cosmic microwave background, the large scale structure of galaxy clusters, along with the distribution of baryonic matter (lighter elements such...
