Summary

We show that cosmic inhomogeneity spectra steeper than CDM in the 10–102 Mpc range provide better fits to the angular correlation function and the peak statistics in COBE-DMR maps for practically any value of the cosmic density, and give relief to the quadrupole discrepancy. CDM+texture models withΩ 0 ≃ 0.7 are especially successful in linking the 10 Mpc and 103 Mpc regions.
