Generation of microwave background fluctuations from nonlinear perturbations at the ERA of galaxy formation
Abstract
The production of temperature distortions of the microwave background by primordial galaxy formation is investigated theoretically. The temperature anisotropies induced by the presence of hot ionized gas during the formation of structure are roughly approximated and found to be greater than the initial anisotropies predicted by hierarchical models, and close to the present upper limit (delta (T/T = about 0.00001 at angular scale 1 arcmin) for standard cold-dark-matter models with Omega(0) = Omega(b) = H/(100 km/s) = 1. It is suggested that sensitive small-scale microwave-fluctuation measurements can impose significant constraints on models of primordial galaxy formation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
