Two-Point Correlations in the [ITAL]COBE[/ITAL] DMR Four-Year Anisotropy Maps
Open accessAbstract
The two-point temperature correlation function is evaluated from the 4 yr COBE DMR microwave anisotropy maps. We examine the two-point function, which is the Legendre transform of the angular power spectrum, and show that the data are statistically consistent from channel to channel and frequency to frequency. The most likely quadrupole normalization is computed for a scale-invariant power-law spectrum of CMB anisotropy, using a variety of data combinations. For a given data set, the normalization inferred from the two-point data is consistent with that inferred by other methods. The smallest and largest normalizations deduced from any data combination are 16.4 and 19.6 μK, respectively, with a value ~18 μK generally preferred.

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.
