WMAP REVEALS NEUTRINOS, END OF DARK AGES, FIRST SECOND OF UNIVERSE
WASHINGTON – NASA released this week five years of data collected by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) that refines our understanding of the universe and its development. It is a treasure trove of information, including at least three major findings:
1. New evidence that a sea of cosmic neutrinos permeates the universe
2. Clear evidence the first stars took more than a half-billion years to create a cosmic fog
3. Tight new constraints on the burst of expansion in the universe's first trillionth of a second

"cosmic neutrino background"
Princeton University - Satellite reveals treasure trove of data, including evidence for early universe neutrinos
"We are living in an extraordinary time," said Gary Hinshaw of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. "Ours is the first generation in human history to make such detailed and far-reaching measurements of our universe."
The discovery, announced March 7 by NASA, is part of a treasure trove of findings gleaned from five years of data collected by the Wilkinson Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). This includes clear evidence the first stars took more than a half billion years to create a cosmic fog and a far better understanding of the burst of expansion in the universe's first trillionth of a second.
http://www.princeton.edu/main/news/archive/S20/49/27E85/index.xml?section=topstories



New results show that when the universe was only 380,000 years old (13.7 billion years ago) it was composed of 12 percent baryonic matter, 63 percent dark matter, next to zero dark energy, 15 percent photons, and over 10 percent of was neutrinos.

Could The Universe Be Tied Up With Cosmic String?
ScienceDaily (Jan. 21, 2008)
"The four-person team are members of COSMOS, the UK's world-leading cosmology supercomputing consortium fronted by Stephen Hawking. Using a Silicon Graphics supercomputer they made predictions of how the strings would affect the Cosmic Microwave Background, relic radio waves from the Big Bang which fill the universe. It turned out that the best explanation for the pattern of this radiation was a theory which included strings.
Dr Hindmarsh said that better data is required before the existence of cosmic strings can be confirmed. He hopes this will be produced by the European Space Agency's Planck Satellite mission (due for launch this year).
The results are published in Physical Review Letters on 18 January, 2008."

WMAP REVEALS NEUTRINOS, END OF DARK AGES, FIRST SECOND OF UNIVERSE
WASHINGTON – NASA released this week five years of data collected by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) that refines our understanding of the universe and its development. It is a treasure trove of information, including at least three major findings:
1. New evidence that a sea of cosmic neutrinos permeates the universe
2. Clear evidence the first stars took more than a half-billion years to create a cosmic fog
3. Tight new constraints on the burst of expansion in the universe's first trillionth of a second

Princeton University - Satellite reveals treasure trove of data, including evidence for early universe neutrinos
"We are living in an extraordinary time," said Gary Hinshaw of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. "Ours is the first generation in human history to make such detailed and far-reaching measurements of our universe."
The discovery, announced March 7 by NASA, is part of a treasure trove of findings gleaned from five years of data collected by the Wilkinson Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). This includes clear evidence the first stars took more than a half billion years to create a cosmic fog and a far better understanding of the burst of expansion in the universe's first trillionth of a second.
http://www.princeton.edu/main/news/archive/S20/49/27E85/index.xml?section=topstories



New results show that when the universe was only 380,000 years old (13.7 billion years ago) it was composed of 12 percent baryonic matter, 63 percent dark matter, next to zero dark energy, 15 percent photons, and over 10 percent of was neutrinos.

Could The Universe Be Tied Up With Cosmic String?
ScienceDaily (Jan. 21, 2008)
"The four-person team are members of COSMOS, the UK's world-leading cosmology supercomputing consortium fronted by Stephen Hawking. Using a Silicon Graphics supercomputer they made predictions of how the strings would affect the Cosmic Microwave Background, relic radio waves from the Big Bang which fill the universe. It turned out that the best explanation for the pattern of this radiation was a theory which included strings.
Dr Hindmarsh said that better data is required before the existence of cosmic strings can be confirmed. He hopes this will be produced by the European Space Agency's Planck Satellite mission (due for launch this year).
The results are published in Physical Review Letters on 18 January, 2008."

WMAP REVEALS NEUTRINOS, END OF DARK AGES, FIRST SECOND OF UNIVERSE
WASHINGTON – NASA released this week five years of data collected by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) that refines our understanding of the universe and its development. It is a treasure trove of information, including at least three major findings:
1. New evidence that a sea of cosmic neutrinos permeates the universe
2. Clear evidence the first stars took more than a half-billion years to create a cosmic fog
3. Tight new constraints on the burst of expansion in the universe's first trillionth of a second

Princeton University - Satellite reveals treasure trove of data, including evidence for early universe neutrinos
"We are living in an extraordinary time," said Gary Hinshaw of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. "Ours is the first generation in human history to make such detailed and far-reaching measurements of our universe."
The discovery, announced March 7 by NASA, is part of a treasure trove of findings gleaned from five years of data collected by the Wilkinson Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). This includes clear evidence the first stars took more than a half billion years to create a cosmic fog and a far better understanding of the burst of expansion in the universe's first trillionth of a second.

New results show that when the universe was only 380,000 years old (13.7 billion years ago) it was composed of 12 percent baryonic matter, 63 percent dark matter, next to zero dark energy, 15 percent photons, and over 10 percent of was neutrinos.

NASA Probe Finds Sea Of Cosmic Neutrinos, New Evidence Of Early Universe

Could The Universe Be Tied Up With Cosmic String?
ScienceDaily (Jan. 21, 2008)
"The four-person team are members of COSMOS, the UK's world-leading cosmology supercomputing consortium fronted by Stephen Hawking. Using a Silicon Graphics supercomputer they made predictions of how the strings would affect the Cosmic Microwave Background, relic radio waves from the Big Bang which fill the universe. It turned out that the best explanation for the pattern of this radiation was a theory which included strings.
Dr Hindmarsh said that better data is required before the existence of cosmic strings can be confirmed. He hopes this will be produced by the European Space Agency's Planck Satellite mission (due for launch this year).
The results are published in Physical Review Letters on 18 January, 2008."
