Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Review
F. -Xavier Desert
I review the present observational status of the SZ effect due to the Compton scattering of the 3K background on the hot electrons of clusters of galaxies. I raise the relevant iss…
FIRBACK Far Infrared Survey with ISO: Data Reduction, Analysis and First Results
Herve Dole, Guilaine Lagache, Jean-Loup Puget +19
FIRBACK is one of the deepest cosmological surveys performed in the far infrared, using ISOPHOT. We describe this survey, its data reduction and analysis. We present the maps of fi…
A Deep 12 Micron Survey with ISO
D. L. Clements, F-X. Desert, A. Franceschini +4
We present the first results of a study of faint 12 micron sources detected with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) in four deep, high galactic latitude fields. The sample includ…
First detection of the WIM dust emission. Implication for the Cosmic Far-Infrared Background
G. Lagache, A. Abergel, F. Boulanger +2
We present a new analysis of the far-IR emission at high Galactic latitude based on COBE and HI data. A decomposition of the Far-IR emission over the HI, H^+ and H_2 Galactic gas c…
The FIRBACK 175 micron Survey
David L. Clements, J-L Puget, G. Lagache +14
The FIRBACK project is a collaboration of eight institutes aimed at using long wavelength surveys with ISO to uncover the nature of the Cosmic Far-Infrared Background. We have surv…
A classical approach to faint extragalactic source extraction from ISOCAM deep surveys. Application to the Hubble Deep Field
F. -X. Desert, J. -L. Puget, D. L. Clements +4
We have developed a general data reduction technique for ISOCAM data coming from various deep surveys of faint galaxies. In order to reach the fundamental limits of the camera (due…
