How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T17245616 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
WMAP
WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe) was a NASA space observatory that precisely mapped the cosmic microwave background radiation, revolutionizing our understanding of the universe’s age, composition, and development.
-
B.
Planck 2013 results
Planck 2013 results is the first major cosmological data release from the Planck mission, providing high-precision measurements of the cosmic microwave background that refined key parameters of the standard model of cosmology.
-
C.
Planck 2018 results
Planck 2018 results are the final, most precise cosmological data and analyses from the ESA Planck mission, providing detailed measurements of the cosmic microwave background and key parameters of the standard cosmological model.
-
D.
WMAP Team
The WMAP Team is the group of scientists behind the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe mission, which precisely mapped the cosmic microwave background and revolutionized our understanding of the universe’s age, composition, and development.
-
E.
Silk damping in the cosmic microwave background
Silk damping in the cosmic microwave background is the process by which small-scale temperature fluctuations in the early universe were smoothed out due to photon diffusion before recombination.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
