Planck 2015 results. XII. Full Focal Plane simulations
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +228
We present the 8th Full Focal Plane simulation set (FFP8), deployed in support of the Planck 2015 results. FFP8 consists of 10 fiducial mission realizations reduced to 18144 maps,…
Planck 2015 results. XVI. Isotropy and statistics of the CMB
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +242
We test the statistical isotropy and Gaussianity of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies using observations made by the Planck satellite. Our results are based mainly…
The Thermal Design, Characterization, and Performance of the SPIDER Long-Duration Balloon Cryostat
J. E. Gudmundsson, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +40
We describe the SPIDER flight cryostat, which is designed to cool six millimeter-wavelength telescopes during an Antarctic long-duration balloon flight. The cryostat, one of the la…
Planck intermediate results. XXVII. High-redshift infrared galaxy overdensity candidates and lensed sources discovered by Planck and confirmed by Herschel-SPIRE
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, B. Altieri +183
[Abridged] We use the Planck all-sky submm and mm maps to search for rare sources distinguished by extreme brightness, a few hundreds of mJy, and their potential for being situated…
Planck Intermediate Results. XXXVI. Optical identification and redshifts of Planck SZ sources with telescopes in the Canary Islands Observatories
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +187
We present the results of approximately three years of observations of Planck Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) sources with telescopes at the Canary Islands observatories as part of the gene…
Planck 2015 results. IX. Diffuse component separation: CMB maps
Planck Collaboration, R. Adam, P. A. R. Ade +236
We present foreground-reduced CMB maps derived from the full Planck data set in both temperature and polarization. Compared to the corresponding Planck 2013 temperature sky maps, t…
Planck 2013 results. XXIX. The Planck catalogue of Sunyaev-Zeldovich sources: Addendum
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +276
We update the all-sky Planck catalogue of 1227 clusters and cluster candidates (PSZ1) published in March 2013, derived from Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect detections using the first…
Planck intermediate results. XXXV. Probing the role of the magnetic field in the formation of structure in molecular clouds
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +195
Within ten nearby (d < 450 pc) Gould Belt molecular clouds we evaluate statistically the relative orientation between the magnetic field projected on the plane of sky, inferred fro…
Planck 2015 results. XXIV. Cosmology from Sunyaev-Zeldovich cluster counts
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +233
We present cluster counts and corresponding cosmological constraints from the Planck full mission data set. Our catalogue consists of 439 clusters detected via their Sunyaev-Zeldov…
Planck 2015 results. II. Low Frequency Instrument data processing
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +213
We present an updated description of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) data processing pipeline, associated with the 2015 data release. We point out the places where our re…
