Cosmic background anisotropies

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and density fluctuations are calculated for flat cold dark matter (CDM) models with a wide range of parameters, viz., {OMEGA}_0,h_, and {OMEGA}_B_, for standard recombination and for various epochs of reionization.

Description

Tables of the power spectrum of CMB anisotropies in the form of C_l_ values as a function of l are presented. Although the Harrison-Zeldovich initial spectrum is assumed in these tables, we present simple approximations for obtaining the C_l_ values corresponding to a tilted spectrum from those with a Harrison-Zeldovich spectrum.

Values of {sigma}_8_ are derived for the matter density spectrum, with {sigma}(10deg), fixed Q_(rms-PS) and COBE Differential Microwave Radiometer (DMR) 2yr normalizations. Simple modifications of the fitting formula for the density transfer function are given which are applicable for models with high baryon density. By using both numerical results and these fitting formulae, we calculate the relation between {sigma}_8_ and Q_(rms-PS) and find good agreement.
