Planck 2015 results. II. Low Frequency Instrument data processing
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +213
We present an updated description of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) data processing pipeline, associated with the 2015 data release. We point out the places where our re…
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…
Planck pre-launch status: calibration of the Low Frequency Instrument flight model radiometers
F. Villa, L. Terenzi, M. Sandri +71
The Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) on-board the ESA Planck satellite carries eleven radiometer subsystems, called Radiometer Chain Assemblies (RCAs), each composed of a pair of pse…
Planck-LFI radiometers tuning
Francesco Cuttaia, Aniello Mennella, Luca Stringhetti +33
"This paper is part of the Prelaunch status LFI papers published on JINST: http://www.iop.org/EJ/journal/-page=extra.proc5/jinst" This paper describes the Planck Low Frequency Inst…
The linearity response of the Planck-LFI flight model receivers
A. Mennella, F. Villa, L. Terenzi +37
In this paper we discuss the linearity response of the Planck-LFI receivers, with particular reference to signal compression measured on the 30 and 44 GHz channels. In the article…
Planck pre-launch status: Design and description of the Low Frequency Instrument
M. Bersanelli, N. Mandolesi, R. C. Butler +109
In this paper we present the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI), designed and developed as part of the Planck space mission, the ESA program dedicated to precision imaging of the cosmi…
