ANISOTROPY OF THE MICROWAVE BACKGROUND-RADIATION

New results from analysis of data oil the anisotropy of the background radiation at 37 GHz (spaceborne experiment Relikt 1) are presented. The relative magnitude of the quadrupole component was estimated with 90% confidence for an inflationary perturbation spectrum: 6.10(-6) < DELTAT2/T < 3.3.10(-5). All anomaly of the microwave radiation bas been found, with 99% confidence, in a region with area almost-equal-to 1 sr near the point with coordinates alpha congruent-to 1h30m and delta congruent-to -10-degrees (l = 150-degrees and b = -70-degrees). The magnitude of this anomaly is DELTAT(b) = -71 +/- 43 mu K with 90% confidence. We discuss possible sources of the anomaly.
