General asymptotic formulas are given for the coefficient ${C}_{l}$ of the term of multipole number l in the temperature correlation function of the cosmic microwave background, in terms of scalar and dipole form factors introduced in a companion paper. The formulas apply in two overlapping limits: for $l\ensuremath{\gg}1$ and for …
