CMB dipole asymmetry through annular variance
Dipole asymmetry is among the most important anomalies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). A dipole, if primordial, would challenge the isotropy of the Universe. In this work, we propose a novel method to find the direction of the dipole and its amplitude and assess its significance. The metho...
