Descripción
We present the power spectrum of the fluctuations in the cosmic
microwave background detected by the Very Small Array (VSA) in its first
season of observations in its compact configuration. We find clear
detections of first and second acoustic peaks at l~ 200 and ~550, plus
detection of power on scales up to l= 800. The VSA power spectrum is in
very good agreement with the results of the BOOMERanG, DASI and MAXIMA
telescopes despite the differing potential systematic errors.
