Another experiment carried out in 1990 at the South Pole by Phil Lubin of the University of California at Santa Barbara and his colleagues may have detected primordial ripples at
angular scales of 1.5 degrees, though they are not yet convinced that they can rule out a galactic origin for their signal.
And
the angular scale of the EHT is astonishing; it will have the power to resolve something the size of a grape lying on the surface of the moon.
Not exact matches
But the new results from the Degree
Angular Scale Interferometer (DASI) and the Balloon Observations
of Millimetric Extragalactic Radiation and Geophysics (BOOMERANG) project reveal two peaks and strongly suggest the presence
of a third one.
Another result that we don't really understand is that we don't see any temperature fluctuations in the microwave background on
scales larger than 60 degrees [the
angular size in the sky
of the fluctuations].
Detection

Another experiment there, the South Pole Telescope, reported finding B - mode polarization last year, although the signal it saw was at a different
angular scale across the sky and was clearly due to the known process
of gravitational lensing (a warping
of light caused by massive objects)
of the CMB by large galaxies, rather than the primordial gravitational waves seen here.
BICEP2 has plenty
of competition in searching for B - mode polarization in the CMB: other projects include the Atacama B - mode Search (ABS) led by Princeton University; the POLARBEAR experiment led by the University
of California, Berkeley; the high - altitude balloon — borne E and B Experiment (EBEX) run by the University
of Minnesota; the Cosmology Large
Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) led by Johns Hopkins University; and numerous others.
data are notoriously noisy, and the purported effect looks remarkably like an instrumental glitch: it appears only in one small area
of the sky and on an
angular scale close to the limit
of the satellite's resolution.»

By combining the light from four telescopes, the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) delivers
angular resolution at milli - arcsecond
scale and astrometry at tens
of micro-arcsecond.
First aid was given by the image

The SKA will be a radio observatory
of unparalleled sensitivity across a wide range
of angular scales and radio wavelengths.
This will allow EBEX to observe the primordial B - mode signal predicted by inflation on
scales of about 0.5 deg and the anticipated lensing B - mode signal at smaller
angular scales.
The range is fantastic, and I think indicative
of contemporary trends within the medium:
angular figures and aggressively colorful compositions in a New Objectivity vein from very young, non-German artists including Anna Navasardian (Armenian but New York - based, showing with Galerie Andreas Binder, Munich) and Pawel Sliwinski (Polish, showing with Beers Contemporary, London); representational works in thick, gestural impasto, both in Kim Dorland's grand, en plein air style (Angell Gallery, Toronto), and in Bobby Mathieson's intimately
scaled portraiture (Lyons Wier Gallery, New York); and abstraction both super-reductive (like Clare Grill, showing with FRED.GIAMPIETRO, New Haven) and cosmically colorful (Jennifer Lefort, showing with Patrick Mikhail Contemporary, Ottawa); plus every conceivable style in between.
A selection

At first glance, Rothschild's aesthetic
of angular,
scaled - up Minimalism seems a world away from the organic, weathered appeal
of the work by her professional predecessor, yet the coupling illuminates a fluid, adept curatorial conversation between the two generations.
These free - style, smooth, vector - based motifs
of angular scribbles, slicing zig zags, looping lines, biomorphic shapes and colour fields are then exactingly transferred onto large

One would infer from that statement, that you are implying that there are times
scales at which the earth is speeding up (or at least NOT slowing down) «''»»» due to the recession
of the moon, and the transfer

This graph displays the close connection between the global
angular momentum
of the atmosphere derived from wind analyses (darker red curve,
scale on right) and the observed changes in the length
of day (lighter green curve,
scale on left), after removing low frequencies, for the years 2000/2001.
Thus, on a wide range
of time
scales from several days to years, there is an agreement between the dynamics
of the
angular momentum in the atmosphere and solid earth, which come into view as small but important changes in the rotation
of the planet.
