Comparison of absolute gain photometric calibration between Planck/HFI and Herschel/SPIRE at 545 and 857 GHz
B. Bertincourt, G. Lagache, B. Schulz +14
We compare the absolute gain photometric calibration of the Planck/HFI and Herschel/SPIRE instruments on diffuse emission. The absolute calibration of HFI and SPIRE each relies on…
Planck 2013 results. XXXI. Consistency of the Planck data
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, M. Arnaud +180
The Planck design and scanning strategy provide many levels of redundancy that can be exploited to provide tests of internal consistency. One of the most important is the compariso…

Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +221
This paper presents the Planck 2015 likelihoods, statistical descriptions of the 2-point correlations of CMB data, using the hybrid approach employed previously: pixel-based at $\e…
Planck 2015 results. XXVI. The Second Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +240
The Second Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources is a catalogue of sources detected in single-frequency maps from the full duration of the Planck mission and supersedes previous vers…
Planck 2015 results. XVI. Isotropy and statistics of the CMB
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +242
We test the statistical isotropy and Gaussianity of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies using observations made by the Planck satellite. Our results are based mainly…
