First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Data Processing Methods and Systematic Errors Limits
G. Hinshaw, C. Barnes, C. L. Bennett +14
We describe the calibration and data processing methods used to generate full-sky maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the first year of Wilkinson Microwave Anisotrop…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Foreground Emission
C. Bennett, R. S. Hill, G. Hinshaw +13
Full sky maps are made in five microwave frequency bands to separate the temperature anisotropy of the CMB from foreground emission. We define masks that excise regions of high for…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Preliminary Maps and Basic Results
C. L. Bennett, M. Halpern, G. Hinshaw +18
We present full sky microwave maps in five bands (23 to 94 GHz) from the WMAP first year sky survey. Calibration errors are <0.5% and the low systematic error level is well specifi…
