Description
Quantum fluctuations of the cosmic background have been measured in the 900 to 2000 micron range by means of a balloon-borne correlator operating between 5 and 150 Hz. Preliminary results indicate an upper limit corresponding to the noise of a blackbody at a temperature T < 3.1 K at 1 sigma. (Auth.)
