Low-frequency line temperatures of the CMB

Abstract

Based on SU(2) Yang-Mills thermodynamics we interprete Aracde2's and the results of earlier radio-surveys on low-frequency CMB line temperatures as a phase-boundary effect. We explain the excess at low frequencies by evanescent, nonthermal photon fields of the CMB whose intensity is nulled by that of Planck distributed calibrator photons. The CMB baseline temperature thus is identified with the critical temperature of the deconfining-preconfining transition.Comment: v2: 9 pages, 1 figure, extended discussion of why prsent photon mass bounds are not in contradiction to a low-temperature, low-frequency Meissner mass responsible for UEGE, matches journal versio
