Fractality of Isotherms of the Cosmic Microwave Background Based on Data from the Planck Spacecraft

Mylläri, A. A.; Raikov, A. A.; Orlov, V. V. +3 more

A system of isophotes of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is constructed for several regions on the celestial sphere using data from the Planck spacecraft. The fractal dimensionality of the isotherms is estimated to be D_c ≈ 1.78 ± 0.03. Our results agree with earlier work based on the ILC charts with WMAP data. Our simulations conf…
