With the recent publication of the measurements of the radiation angular power spectrum from the BOOMERanG Antarctic flight (de Bernardis et al. 2000), it has become apparent that the currently favoured spatially-flat cold dark matter model (matter density parameter Ωm = 0.3, flatness being restored by a cosmological constant ΩΛ = 0.7, Hubble parameter h = 0.65, baryon density parameter Ωbh 2 = 0.02) no longer provides a good fit to the data. We describe a phenomenological approach to resurrecting this paradigm. We consider a primordial power spectrum which incorporates a bump, arbitrarily placed at kb, and characterized by a Gaussian in log k of standard deviation σb and amplitude Ab, that is superimposed onto a scale-invariant power spectrum.
