This paper given at the Strasbourg NATO school on the CMB and cosmology reports the contents of four hours of lectures on the CMB spectrum, potential distortions, and implications. It was followed by 6 hours of lectures on CMB anisotropy. This paper reviews the observations and theoretical implications for the CMB frequency spectrum - both for the monopole (essentially total power) and the dipole and higher order anisotropies including the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect.

Return to the Great Attractor: Strong Evidence for a Steradian-sized Flow Converging at $\sim$70 Mpc within the GA Supercluster and Aligned with the CMB Dipole
New SBF distance data confirm a steradian-scale flow converging at ~70 Mpc that matches the direction and amplitude of the CMB dipole and the original Great Attractor model.
