Spectral index constraints. Left: ﹩n_{s}- \tau ﹩ degeneracy in the WMAP data for a power‐law ΛCDM model. The TE observations constrain the value of τ and the shape of the ﹩C^{\mathrm{TT}\,}_{l}﹩ spectrum constrain a combination of ﹩n_{s}﹩ and τ. Right: ﹩n_{s}- \Omega _{b}h^{2}﹩ degeneracy. The shaded regions show the joint 1 and 2 σ confidence regions.
