The Submillimeter Frontier: A Space Science Imperative
John C. Mather, S. Harvey Moseley, David Leisawitz +8
A major goal of modern astrophysics is to understand the processes by which the universe evolved from its initial simplicity, as seen in measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Backgr…
The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment Search for the Cosmic Infrared Background: II. Model of the Interplanetary Dust Cloud
T. Kelsall, J. L. Weiland, B. A. Franz +9
The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) was designed to search for the cosmic infrared background (CIB) radiation. Scattered light and thermal emission from the int…
The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment Search for the Cosmic Infrared Background: I. Limits and Detections
M. G. Hauser, R. G. Arendt, T. Kelsall +15
The DIRBE on the COBE spacecraft was designed primarily to conduct systematic search for an isotropic CIB in ten photometric bands from 1.25 to 240 microns. The results of that sea…
The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment Search for the Cosmic Infrared Background: IV. Cosmological Implications
E. Dwek, R. G. Arendt, M. G. Hauser +11
In this paper we examine the cosmological constraints of the recent DIRBE and FIRAS detection of the extragalactic background light between 125-5000 microns on the metal and star f…
The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment Search for the Cosmic Infrared Background: III. Separation of Galactic Emission from the Infrared Sky Brightness
R. G. Arendt, N. Odegard, J. L. Weiland +10
The Cosmic Infrared Background (CIB) is hidden behind veils of foreground emission from our own solar system and Galaxy. This paper describes procedures for removing the Galactic I…
The Spectrum of the Extragalactic Far Infrared Background from the COBE Firas Observations
D. J. Fixsen, E. Dwek, J. C. Mather +2
The COBE FIRAS data contain foreground emission from interplanetary, Galactic interstellar dust and extragalactic background emission. We use three different methods to separate th…
