| dc.description | The CMB quadrupole and octupole, as well as being weaker than expected, align suspiciously well with each other. Non-trivial spatial topology can explain the weakness. Might it also explain the alignment? The answer, at least in the case of the Poincare dodecahedral space, is a resounding no. | |
