The Spectrum Distortion of Relic Radiation in the Moment of Universe Recombination
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 February 2017
Extract
Matsumoto et al. (1988) have reported a significant distortion in the spectrum of microwave background radiation in the submillimetre waveband 400-700 μ. This follows a rocket experiment by a team from Nagoya and Berkeley in February, 1987. This experiment has resulted in a series of papers which have attempted to interpret this excess (see Carr, 1988). This result may force us to revise the process of universe recombination and/or to resort to nonequilibrium processes. The distortion of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) from Planck spectrum may necessarily arise because of the production of energetic quanta in the process of recombination which lead to retarding former and distortion of CMB both in the Wein region and the Rayleigh-Jeans region (Zeldovich, Kurt, and Sunyaev, 1969; Lumbarskii and Sunyaev, 1983).
