Anisotropy in the microwave sky: latest results from PYTHON
Abstract
We will report results from the second season of observations with Python, a system designed to search for degree-scale anisotropies in the Cosmic Microwave Background. The instrument, which has an array of four bolometric detectors in its focal plane, is sensitive to radiation centered at lambda = 3.3 mm. Significant fluctuations (Delta T_{RJ,rms} ~ 70mu K) were found in the first seasons observations at the South Pole, January 1993. The same fields were reobserved during December 1993; we will report on the correlation between these two data sets. Additionally, results from a second set of fields will be given.
