CMB observations with the Cosmic Background Imager (CBI) Interferometer

Abstract

We review the recently published results from the CBI's first season of observations. Angular power spectra of the CMB were obtained from deep integrations of 3 single fields covering a total of 3 deg^2 and 3 shallower surveys of overlapping (mosaiced) fields covering a total of 40 deg^2. The observations show a damping of the anisotropies at high-l as expected from the standard scenarios of recombination. We present parameter estimates obtained from the data and discuss the significance of an excess at l>2000 observed in the deep fields.
