  • V.G. Gurzadyan and co-researchers add new data to astrophysics

    Science Letter

    ASTROPHYSICS;
    Reports from V.G. Gurzadyan and co-researchers add new data to
    research in astrophysics


    "The power spectrum is obtained for the Kolmogorov stochasticity
    parameter map for WMAP's cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation
    temperature datasets," investigators in Yerevan, Armenia report (see
    also Astrophysics).

    "The interest for CMB Kolmogorov map is that it can carry direct
    information about voids in the matter distribution, so that the
    correlations in the distribution of voids have to be reflected in the
    power spectrum. Although limited by the angular resolution of the
    WMAP, this analysis shows the possibility of acquiring this crucial
    information via CMB maps," wrote V.G. Gurzadyan and colleagues.

    The researchers concluded: "Even the already obtained behavior, some
    of which is absent in the simulated maps, can influence the
    development of views on the void correlations at the large-scale web
    formation."

    Gurzadyan and colleagues published their study in Astronomy &
    Astrophysics (The power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background
    Kolmogorov maps: possible clue to correlation of voids. Astronomy &
    Astrophysics, 2009;506(3):L37-L40).
