Abstract

Multipole vectors and pseudoentropies provide powerful tools for a numerically fast and vivid investigation of possible statistically anisotropic, respectively non-Gaussian signs in CMB temperature fluctuations. After reviewing and linking these two conceptions we compare their application to data analysis using the Planck 2015 NILC full sky map.
