Planck Intermediate Results. IX. Detection of the Galactic haze with Planck

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +181

Using precise full-sky observations from Planck, and applying several methods of component separation, we identify and characterize the emission from the Galactic "haze" at microwa…

Antenna-coupled TES bolometers for the Keck Array, Spider, and Polar-1

R. O'Brient, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +50

Between the BICEP2 and Keck Array experiments, we have deployed over 1500 dual polarized antenna coupled bolometers to map the Cosmic Microwave Background's polarization. We have b…

Optimization and sensitivity of the Keck Array

S. Kernasovskiy, P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin +41

The Keck Array (SPUD) began observing the cosmic microwave background's polarization in the winter of 2011 at the South Pole. The Keck Array follows the success of the predecessor…

BICEP2 and Keck Array operational overview and status of observations

R. W. Ogburn, P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin +50

The BICEP2 and Keck Array experiments are designed to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) on angular scales of 2-4 degrees (l=50-100). This is the reg…

Planck intermediate results. VIII. Filaments between interacting clusters

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +208

About half of the baryons of the Universe are expected to be in the form of filaments of hot and low density intergalactic medium. Most of these baryons remain undetected even by t…

Planck intermediate results. X. Physics of the hot gas in the Coma cluster

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +207

We present an analysis of Planck satellite data on the Coma Cluster observed via the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. Planck is able, for the first time, to detect SZ emission up to r ~ 3…
