Archeops: A balloon experiment to measure CMB anisotropies with a broad range of angular sizes
The Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation is the oldest photon radiation that can be observed, having been emitted when the Universe was about 300,000 year old. It is a blackbody at 2.73 K, and is almost perfectly isotropic, the anisotropies being about one part to 100,000. However, these anisotropi...
