Planck Intermediate Results. I. Further validation of new Planck clusters with XMM-Newton
The Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +182
We present further results from the ongoing XMM-Newton validation follow-up of Planck cluster candidates, detailing X-ray observations of eleven candidates detected at a signal-to-…
Planck Early Results: Statistical properties of extragalactic radio sources in the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +201
The data reported in Planck's Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) are exploited to measure the number counts (dN/dS) of extragalactic radio sources at 30, 44, 70, 100, 1…
Planck Early Results: Origin of the submm excess dust emission in the Magellanic Clouds
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +197
The integrated Spectral Energy Distributions of the Large and Small Magellanic Cloud appear significantly flatter than expected from dust models based on their FIR and radio emissi…
Planck Early Results: The Planck View of Nearby Galaxies
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +192
The all-sky coverage of the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) provides an unsurpassed survey of galaxies at submillimetre (submm) wavelengths, representing a ma…
Planck early results: first assessment of the High Frequency Instrument in-flight performance
Planck HFI Core Team, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +163
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) is designed to measure the temperature and polarization anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background and galactic foregrounds in six w…
Planck Early Results: The Galactic Cold Core Population revealed by the first all-sky survey
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +202
We present the statistical properties of the first version of the Cold Core Catalogue of Planck Objects (C3PO), in terms of their spatial distribution, temperature, distance, mass,…
Planck Early Results: The submillimetre properties of a sample of Galactic cold clumps
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +201
(abridged) We perform a detailed investigation of sources from the Cold Cores Catalogue of Planck Objects (C3PO). Our goal is to probe the reliability of the detections, validate t…
Planck Early Results: All sky temperature and dust optical depth from Planck and IRAS: Constraints on the "dark gas" in our galaxy
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +204
We construct an all-sky map of the apparent temperature and optical depth of thermal dust emission using the Planck-HFI and IRAS data. The optical depth maps are correlated to trac…
Planck early results. XV. Spectral energy distributions and radio continuum spectra of northern extragalactic radio sources
Planck Collaboration, J. Aatrokoski, P. A. R. Ade +246
Spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and radio continuum spectra are presented for a northern sample of 104 extragalactic radio sources, based on the Planck Early Release Compact S…
Planck Early Results: Thermal dust in Nearby Molecular Clouds
Planck Collaboration, A. Abergel, P. A. R. Ade +197
Planck allows unbiased mapping of Galactic sub-millimetre and millimetre emission from the most diffuse regions to the densest parts of molecular clouds. We present an early analys…
Planck Early Results XXIV: Dust in the diffuse interstellar medium and the Galactic halo
Planck Collaboration, A. Abergel, P. A. R. Ade +205
This paper presents the first results of comparison of Planck along with IRAS data with Green Bank Telescope 21-cm observations in 14 fields covering more than 800 square degrees a…
Planck early results. XXI. Properties of the interstellar medium in the Galactic plane
Planck Collaboration, A. Abergel, P. A. R. Ade +199
(abridged) Planck has observed the entire sky from 30 GHz to 857GHz. The observed foreground emission contains contributions from different phases of the interstellar medium (ISM).…
Planck Early Results XI: Calibration of the local galaxy cluster Sunyaev-Zeldovich scaling relations
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +207
We present precise Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect measurements in the direction of 62 nearby galaxy clusters (z <0.5) detected at high signal-to-noise in the first Planck all-sky da…
Planck early results. IX. XMM-Newton follow-up for validation of Planck cluster candidates
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +197
We present the XMM-Newton follow-up for confirmation of Planck cluster candidates. Twenty-five candidates have been observed to date using snapshot (~10 ksec) exposures, ten as par…
Planck Early Results VIII: The all-sky Early Sunyaev-Zeldovich cluster sample
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +235
We present the first all-sky sample of galaxy clusters detected blindly by the Planck satellite through the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect from its six highest frequencies. This ear…
Planck Early Results. II. The thermal performance of Planck
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +225
The performance of the Planck instruments in space is enabled by their low operating temperatures, 20K for LFI and 0.1K for HFI, achieved through a combination of passive radiative…
Planck Early Results: The Planck mission
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +272
The European Space Agency's Planck satellite was launched on 14 May 2009, and has been surveying the sky stably and continuously since 13 August 2009. Its performance is well in li…
