How Anisotropic is our Universe? by Bunn, E, Ferreira, P, Silk, J

“…We perform a statistical analysis in which the four-year data from the Cosmic Background Explorer satellite is searched for the specific anisotropy patterns predicted by these models and thereby set definitive upper limits on the amount of shear, $(\sigma/H)_0$ and vorticity, $(\omega/H)_0$, which are orders of magnitude stronger than previous constraints. …”

Constraints on a Primordial Magnetic Field by Barrow, J, Ferreira, P, Silk, J

“…Our limit is derived from a statistical analysis of the 4-year Cosmic Background Explorer data for anisotropy patterns characteristic of homogeneous anisotropy averaged over all possible sky orientations with respect to the COBE receiver. …”

A Bayesian estimate of the skewness of the Cosmic Microwave Background by Contaldi, C, Ferreira, P, Magueijo, J, Gorski, K

“…The formalism is then applied to estimate the skewness of the publicly available 4 year Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) Differential Microwave Radiometer data. …”

Near-infrared Polarization Charateristics of the Zodiacal Light Observed with DIRBE/COBE by Kohji Takimoto, Shuji Matsuura, Kei Sano, Richard M. Feder

“…We report near-infrared polarization of the zodiacal light (ZL) measured from space by the Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) on board the Cosmic Background Explorer in photometric bands centered at 1.25, 2.2, and 3.5 μ m. …”
