For an outward sightline, Fourier velocity , and sudden last scattering, intrinsic photon temperature projects with a Spherical Bessel function, while the Doppler term projects with its derivative. Density and velocity acoustic sources are approximately a quarter cycle out of phase. Their amplitude is suppressed by photon diffusion, giving a power damping envelope . Projection maps the sound scale to peak spacing approximately and the damping scale to angular multipoles of order .
