Polarization measurements analysis II. Best estimators of polarization fraction and angle
L. Montier, S. Plaszczynski, F. Levrier +5
With the forthcoming release of high precision polarization measurements, such as from the Planck satellite, it becomes critical to evaluate the performance of estimators for the p…
Polarization measurements analysis I. Impact of the full covariance matrix on polarization fraction and angle measurements
L. Montier, S. Plaszczynski, F. Levrier +4
With the forthcoming release of high precision polarization measurements, such as from the Planck satellite, the metrology of polarization needs to improve. In particular, it is cr…
Planck intermediate results. XIX. An overview of the polarized thermal emission from Galactic dust
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +199
This paper presents the large-scale polarized sky as seen by Planck HFI at 353 GHz, which is the most sensitive Planck channel for dust polarization. We construct and analyse large…
Planck intermediate results. XXI. Comparison of polarized thermal emission from Galactic dust at 353 GHz with interstellar polarization in the visible
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +192
The Planck survey provides unprecedented full-sky coverage of the submillimetre polarized emission from Galactic dust, bringing new constraints on the properties of dust. The dust…
Planck intermediate results. XX. Comparison of polarized thermal emission from Galactic dust with simulations of MHD turbulence
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +186
Polarized emission observed by Planck HFI at 353 GHz towards a sample of nearby fields is presented, focusing on the statistics of polarization fractions and angles . The po…
