The shortest distance around the Universe through us is unlikely to be much larger than the horizon diameter if microwave background anomalies are due to cosmic topology. We show that observational constraints from the lack of matched…

We describe a setup and procedures for contactless optical 3D-metrology of silicon micro-strip sensors. Space points are obtained by video microscopy and a high precision XY-table. The XY-dimensions are obtained from the movement of the…

Of all the distance and temporal measures in cosmology, the angular-diameter distance, d_A(z), uniquely reaches a maximum value at some finite redshift z_max and then decreases to zero towards the big bang. This effect has been difficult to…
