Some discussion of the yet to be released WMAP Second Data Release has been going on elsewhere on this forum. I've created this thread as a better labelled place for such discussion.
I have been writing that the second release is overdue, and that there are some hints that there are unexpected things that have contaminated the first release data. Others have pointed out that the data is not clear and needs a lot of time to resolve. |

Our Universe may not score a goal any time soon, as it is apparently
not shaped like a soccer ball: Extending the WMAP Bound on the Size of the Universe http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0604616 -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |

QUOTE (ljk4-1 @ May 1 2006, 09:40 AM)  Our Universe may not score a goal any time soon, as it is apparently not shaped like a soccer ball: Extending the WMAP Bound on the Size of the Universe http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0604616 QUOTE (Key et al) While the shape of our Universe remains a mystery, the matching circles test can be used to place a lower bound on the size of the Universe. The previous limit of 24 Gpc [4] can be extended by about 10% using filtering of theWMAP power spectrum.
