PILOT balloon-borne experiment in-flight performance
A. Mangilli, G. Foënard, J. Aumont +48
The Polarized Instrument for Long-wavelength Observation of the Tenuous interstellar medium (PILOT) is a balloon-borne experiment aiming at measuring the polarized emission of ther…
PILOT: a balloon-borne experiment to measure the polarized FIR emission of dust grains in the interstellar medium
R. Misawa, J-Ph. Bernard, P. Ade +26
Future cosmology space missions will concentrate on measuring the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background, which potentially carries invaluable information about the earlie…
Characterization and Physical Explanation of Energetic Particles on Planck HFI Instrument
A. Catalano, P. Ade, Y. Atik +30
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) has been surveying the sky continuously from the second Lagrangian point (L2) between August 2009 and January 2012. It operates with 52 h…
Impact of particles on the Planck HFI detectors: Ground-based measurements and physical interpretation
A. Catalano, P. Ade, Y. Atik +31
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) surveyed the sky continuously from August 2009 to January 2012. Its noise and sensitivity performance were excellent, but the rate of cos…
In-flight calibration and verification of the Planck-LFI instrument
Anna Gregorio, Francesco Cuttaia, Aniello Mennella +40
In this paper we discuss the Planck-LFI in-flight calibration campaign. After a brief overview of the ground test campaigns, we describe in detail the calibration and performance v…
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…
