This document describes the Millimeter Anisotropy eXperiment IMaging Array (MAXIMA), a balloon-borne experiment measuring the temperature anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) on angular scales of 10 ′ to 5°. MAXIMA data are used to discriminate between cosmologica…

We have built the Millimeter-wave Anisotropy eXperiment IMaging Array (MAXIMA) to make partial sky maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropy and to measure the power spectrum over spherical multipoles of 50 [special characters omitted] ℓ [special chara…
