Research from V.G. Gurzadyan and co-authors reveals new findings on physics
According to a study from Yerevan, Armenia, "The Kolmogorov
stochasticity parameter is shown to act as a tool to detect point
sources in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation temperature
maps."
"Kolmogorov CMB map constructed for the WMAP's 7-year datasets reveals
tiny structures which in part coincide with point radio and Fermi/LAT
gamma-ray sources. In the first application of this method, we
identified several sources not present in the then available 0FGL
Fermi catalog," wrote V.G. Gurzadyan and colleagues.
The researchers concluded: "Subsequently they were confirmed in the
more recent and more complete 1FGL catalog, thus strengthening the
evidence for the power of this methodology."
Gurzadyan and colleagues published their study in Epl (Kolmogorov
analysis detecting radio and Fermi gamma-ray sources in cosmic
microwave background maps. Epl, 2010;91(1):19001).
For more information, contact V.G. Gurzadyan, Alikhanian National
Laboratory, Yerevan, Armenia.
Publisher contact information for the journal Epl is: Epl Association,
