Euclid preparation. XXIX. Water ice in spacecraft part I: The physics of ice formation and contamination
Euclid Collaboration, M. Schirmer, K. Thürmer +218
Molecular contamination is a well-known problem in space flight. Water is the most common contaminant and alters numerous properties of a cryogenic optical system. Too much ice mea…
The Euclid Data Processing Challenges
Pierre Dubath, Nikolaos Apostolakos, Andrea Bonchi +37
Euclid is a Europe-led cosmology space mission dedicated to a visible and near infrared survey of the entire extra-galactic sky. Its purpose is to deepen our knowledge of the dark…
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. 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…
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…
A systematic approach to the Planck LFI end-to-end test and its application to the DPC Level 1 pipeline
M. Frailis, M. Maris, A. Zacchei +23
The Level 1 of the Planck LFI Data Processing Centre (DPC) is devoted to the handling of the scientific and housekeeping telemetry. It is a critical component of the Planck ground…
LFI Radiometric Chain Assembly (RCA) data handling "Rachel"
M. Malaspina, E. Franceschi, P. Battaglia +26
This paper is part of the Prelaunch status LFI papers published on JINST (http://www.iop.org/EJ/journal/-page=extra.proc5/1748-0221). Planck's Low Frequency Instrument is an array…
Optimization of Planck/LFI on--board data handling
M. Maris, M. Tomasi, S. Galeotta +34
To asses stability against 1/f noise, the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) onboard the Planck mission will acquire data at a rate much higher than the data rate allowed by its teleme…
Level 1 on-ground telemetry handling in Planck LFI
A. Zacchei, M. Frailis, M. Maris +31
The Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) will observe the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) by covering the frequency range 30-70 GHz in three bands. The primary instrument data s…
Off-line radiometric analysis of Planck/LFI data
M. Tomasi, A. Mennella, S. Galeotta +35
The Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) is an array of 22 pseudo-correlation radiometers on-board the Planck satellite to measure temperature and polarization anisotropies in the…
