Non Gaussian

In this paper we develop the theory of clusterization of peaks in a Gaussian random field. We have obtained new mathematical results from this theory and the theory of percolation and have proposed a topological method of analysis of sky maps based on these results. We have simulated 10°×10° sky maps of the cosmic microwave background anisotropy expected from different cosmological models with 0.5°–1° resolution in order to demonstrate how this method can be used for detection of non-Gaussian noise in the maps and detection of the Doppler-peak in the spectrum of perturbation of ΔT/T.

Large Scale Structure Formation

We have developed a balloon-borne experiment to measure the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation anisotropy on angular scales from ˜50° down to ˜20′. The instrument observes at frequencies between 150 and 690 GHz and will be flown on an Antarctic circumpolar long duration flight. To greatly improve the experiment performance, the front-end of the experiment is mounted on the top of the balloon. With high sensitivity, broad sky coverage, and well-characterized systematic errors, the results of this experiment can be used to strongly constrain cosmological models and probe the early stages of large-scale structure formation in the Universe.
