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 XXVI: Detection with Planck and confirmation by XMM-Newton of PLCK G266.6-27.3, an exceptionally X-ray luminous and massive galaxy cluster at z~1
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +189
We present first results on PLCK G266.6-27.3, a galaxy cluster candidate detected at a signal-to-noise ratio of 5 in the Planck All Sky survey. An XMM-Newton validation observation…
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: Cluster Sunyaev-Zeldovich optical scaling relations
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +202
We present the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) signal-to-richness scaling relation (Y500-N200) for the MaxBCG cluster catalogue. Employing a multi-frequency matched filter on the Planck sky…
Planck Early Results. V. The Low Frequency Instrument data processing
A. Zacchei, D. Maino, C. Baccigalupi +146
We describe the processing of data from the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) used in production of the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC). In particular, we discus…
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. 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 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: 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…
