We have calculated the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background radiation in a baryon-dominated model (BDM), using a gauge invariant method. The results on a 4.5′ angular scale are as follows (h = 0.5 and initially Zel'dovich power spectrum assumed):

My goal is to summarize our understanding of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) at this interesting moment after the detection of fluctuations in the background and before the next generation of satellite experiments. I begin by listing recent reviews and papers on the spectrum of the CMBR. I then sketch the current theoretical description of the power spectrum of fluctuations in the CMBR. Astronomical foregrounds and the nature of secondary fluctuations are treated next. Then I turn to observations, with special emphasis on the final results of the COBE–DMR experiment, on the growing evidence for ΔT/T = 2–3 × 10−5 fluctuations at degree scales, and on what they tell us about cosmological parameters.

The amplitude of the second peak in the angular spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation is constrained to be small by recent experiments like Boomerang. This is surprising in the context of the ΛCDM model, which predicted a large second peak. However, this result is expected if CDM does not exist. The observed shape of the power spectrum was accurately predicted (before the fact) by a model motivated by the surprising recent successes of the modified dynamics (MOND) hypothesized by Milgrom.
