Planck 2013 results. IX. HFI spectral response
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +217
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) spectral response was determined through a series of ground based tests conducted with the HFI focal plane in a cryogenic environment pri…
Planck 2013 results. VII. HFI time response and beams
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +220
This paper characterizes the effective beams,the effective beam window functions and the associated errors for the Planck HFI detectors. The effective beam is the angular response…
Planck 2013 results. V. LFI calibration
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, C. Armitage-Caplan +217
We discuss the methods employed to photometrically calibrate the data acquired by the Low Frequency Instrument on Planck. Our calibration is based on a combination of the Orbital D…
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…
Design, development, and verification of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument 70 GHz Front-End and Back-End Modules
J. Varis, N. J. Hughes, M. Laaninen +26
70 GHz radiometer front-end and back-end modules for the Low Frequency Instrument of the European Space Agencys Planck Mission were built and tested. The operating principles and t…
Destriping CMB temperature and polarization maps
H. Kurki-Suonio, E. Keihanen, R. Keskitalo +4
We study destriping as a map-making method for temperature-and-polarization data for cosmic microwave background observations. We present a particular implementation of destriping…
