The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ) . ... Before jumping into all the finer details of teh survey, a brief non-astronomer's guide to redshift surveys is available. ... The primary scientific aims of the QSO survey are: (1) to obtain the primordial fluctuation power spectrum out to COBE scales, (2) to determine the rate of QSO clustering evolution in the non-linear and linear regimes and hence obtain new limits on the value of and the bias parameter, (3) to apply a powerful geometric method to measure . ...

The Archeops experiment aimed at measuring the cosmic background emitted just after the Big Bang. The study of this radiation is essential to obtain precise information on the evolution of the Universe: density, Hubble constant, age of the Universe.. To achieve this goal, measurements have been done with devices cooled down at 100mK temperature placed at the focus of a warm telescope. ... 28960 visitors . ...
