Jun 2, 2020 · The quadrupole found in the cosmic microwave background - the faint radiation left over from the Big Bang that suffuses the Universe - has been referred to as an "anomaly", a "problem" and the "Axis of Evil".
Apr 11, 2007 · But evidence is growing that the so-called “axis of evil” – a pattern apparently imprinted on the radiation left behind by the big bang – may be real, posing a threat to standard cosmology.
Jul 1, 2011 · Dubbed the “Axis of Evil,” it is as if the universe is being difficult by keeping back one or two pieces of the jigsaw and deliberately preventing researchers from calibrating our weighing...
Sep 2, 2009 · What they did next was a PR master stroke: they called their discovery the cosmic “ axis of evil “. What exactly had they seen?
We examine previous claims for a preferred axis at (b,l) ≈ (60,−100) in the cosmic radiation anisotropy, by generalizing the concept of multipole planarity to any shape preference (a concept we define mathematically).
Compute uncorrelated polarization map - in practice. Reduce noise by Wiener filtering: d = data (observe), s = signal (want) R = mask, n = noise Assume Gaussian signal and Gaussian noise 㱺 Posterior distribution P(s | d) is Gaussian, too. Posterior mean of signal: Wiener filter. Monday, March 14, 2011.
