Comparing and combining the Saskatoon, QMAP and COBE CMB maps
Yongzhong Xu, Max Tegmark, Angelica de Oliveira-Costa +5
We present a method for comparing and combining maps with different resolutions and beam shapes, and apply it to the Saskatoon, QMAP and COBE/DMR data sets. Although the Saskatoon…
Galactic Observations at 31, 42 and 144~GHz with the Mobile Anisotropy Telescope
J. L. Puchalla, R. Caldwell, K. L. Cruz +8
We present multi-frequency maps of a portion of the Galactic Plane centered on a declination of -60 degrees with resolutions ranging from 0.2 to 0.9 degrees. The maps are optimized…
Galactic contamination in the QMAP experiment
Angelica de Oliveira-Costa, Max Tegmark, Mark J. Devlin +6
We quantify the level of foreground contamination in the QMAP Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) data with two objectives: (a) measuring the level to which the QMAP power spectrum m…
