摘要
We present the temperature and polarization angular power spectra of the cosmic microwave background derived from the first five years of Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe data. The five-year temperature spectrum is cosmic variance limited up to multipole l = 530, and individual l-modes have signal-to-noise ratio S/N > 1 for l < 920. The best-fitting six-parameter Lambda CDM model has a reduced chi(2) for l = 33-1000 of chi(2)/nu = 1.06, with a probability to exceed of 9.3%. There is now significantly improved data near the third peak which leads to improved cosmological constraints. The temperature-polarization correlation is seen with high significance. After accounting for foreground emission, the low-l reionization feature in the EE power spectrum is preferred by Delta chi(2) = 19.6 for optical depth tau = 0.089 by the EE data alone, and is now largely cosmic variance limited for l = 2-6. There is no evidence for cosmic signal in the BB, TB, or EB spectra after accounting for foreground emission. We find that, when averaged over l = 2-6, l(l + 1)CBB(l)(BB)/(2 pi) < 0.15 mu K(2) (95% CL).
