TL;DR: In this paper, the first year of data from the differential microwave radiometers on the Cosmic Background Explorer was presented, and the angular autocorrelation of the signal in each radiometer channel and cross-correlation between channels were consistent and gave a primordial fluctuation power-law spectrum with index of 1.1 +/- 0.5, and an rms-quadrupole-normalized amplitude of 16 +/- 4 micro-K.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cosmic temperature fluctuations from two years of COBE DMR observations
Charles L. Bennett,K. Loewenstein,Edward Cheng,Charles H. Lineweaver,David T. Wilkinson,P. Keegstra,K. M. Górski,John C. Mather,S. S. Meyer,A. J. Banday,Rainer Weiss,Gary Hinshaw,G. F. Smoot,A. Kogut,Edward L. Wright,Philip Lubin,P. D. Jackson,E. Kaita +17 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first two years of COBE DMR observations of the CMB anisotropy are analyzed and compared with the previously published first year results, and the results are consistent, but the addition of the second year of data increases the precision and accuracy of the detected CMB temperature fluctuations.

TL;DR: The techniques available for the identification and subtraction of sources of dynamic uncertainty from data of the Differential Microwave Radiometer (DMR) instrument aboard COBE are discussed in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landsat 9 Cross Calibration Under-Fly of Landsat 8: Planning, and Execution
E. Kaita,Brian L. Markham,Md. Obaidul Haque,Donald Dichmann,Aaron Gerace,Lawrence Leigh,Susan Good,Micha Schmidt,Christopher J. Crawford +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a successful under-fly of Landsat 8 by Landsat 9 is described, allowing for the near-simultaneous data collection of common Earth targets by the on-board sensors for cross-calibration.
