The cosmological monopole represents the average temperature of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), while the dipole reflects the effects of Earth's motion relative to the CMB, resulting in blue-shifting in the direction of motion and red-shifting in the opposite direction. Higher multipoles, such as quadrupoles, arise from primordial temperature variations in the early universe. The CMB temperature can be analyzed using spherical harmonics, allowing for a mathematical decomposition of its temperature distribution across the sky. Understanding these concepts is crucial for studying the universe's early conditions and cosmic structure.
