Abstract

In spite of the very accurate results obtained by the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE), the existence of deviations from a Planckian distribution in the spectrum of the relic or cosmic background radiation (CBR) at frequencies near and below 1 GHz is still an open question. The detection of distortions would be very important for the cosmological implications they can have. We present results from a program of measurements of the absolute temperature of the CBR at low frequencies carried out by a Milano-Berkeley collaboration. Future programs are also discussed.
