摘要:

在本文中,我们提出的结果,从一套完整的宇宙微波背景(CMB)辐射温度各向异性的观测与弧分钟宇宙学测辐射热计阵列接收机(ACBAR)在150 GHz的工作。我们包括了2005年最后一个观测季节的新数据,比上一个ACBAR版本增加了210%的探测器小时数和490%的天空覆盖率。结果,频带功率不确定性在包含第三至第五声峰以及CMB功率谱的阻尼尾部的角标度上减小了两倍以上。通过与偶极校准的WMAP 5实验测量的CMB各向异性的直接比较,校准不确定度已从6%降低到2.1%。测得的功率谱与空间平坦的LambdaCDM宇宙学模型一致。我们在功率谱模型计算中包括弱透镜效应的影响,并发现这显着提高了模型对ACBAR+ WMAP 5功率谱的拟合。透镜的优选强度与理论预期一致。在精细的角度尺度上,有微弱的证据(1.1西格玛),超过预期的水平,从主要各向异性的过剩的权力。我们预计,任何多余的能量都将由尘埃原星系的发射和Sunyaev-Zel'dovich效应(SZE)的结合所主导。然而,由ACBAR观察到的过量显著小于由在30 GHz下操作的CBI实验报告的在ell > 2000处的过量功率。因此,虽然CBI过量不太可能有原始来源,但ACBAR和CBI的综合结果与CBI过量的来源一致,即SZE或放射源污染。

英文摘要:

In this paper, we present results from the complete set of cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation temperature anisotropy observations made with the Arcminute Cosmology Bolometer Array Receiver (ACBAR) operating at 150 GHz. We include new data from the final 2005 observing season, expanding the number of detector-hours by 210% and the sky coverage by 490% over that used for the previous ACBAR release. As a result, the band-power uncertainties have been reduced by more than a factor of two on angular scales encompassing the third to fifth acoustic peaks as well as the damping tail of the CMB power spectrum. The calibration uncertainty has been reduced from 6% to 2.1% in temperature through a direct comparison of the CMB anisotropy measured by ACBAR with that of the dipole-calibrated WMAP5 experiment. The measured power spectrum is consistent with a spatially flat, LambdaCDM cosmological model. We include the effects of weak lensing in the power spectrum model computations and find that this significantly improves the fits of the models to the combined ACBAR+WMAP5 power spectrum. The preferred strength of the lensing is consistent with theoretical expectations. On fine angular scales, there is weak evidence (1.1 sigma) for excess power above the level expected from primary anisotropies. We expect any excess power to be dominated by the combination of emission from dusty protogalaxies and the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE). However, the excess observed by ACBAR is significantly smaller than the excess power at ell > 2000 reported by the CBI experiment operating at 30 GHz. Therefore, while it is unlikely that the CBI excess has a primordial origin; the combined ACBAR and CBI results are consistent with the source of the CBI excess being either the SZE or radio source contamination.
