Results from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe
Eiichiro Komatsu, Charles L. Bennett
The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) mapped the distribution of temperature and polarization over the entire sky in five microwave frequency bands. These full-sky maps w…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: On-Orbit Radiometer Characterization
N. Jarosik, C. Barnes, C. L. Bennett +11
The WMAP satellite has completed one year of measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation using 20 differential high-electron-mobility-transistor (HEMT) based ra…
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: Angular Power Spectrum
G. Hinshaw, D. N. Spergel, L. Verde +14
We present the angular power spectrum derived from the first-year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) sky maps. We study a variety of power spectrum estimation methods and…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Galactic Signal Contamination from Sidelobe Pickup
C. Barnes, R. S. Hill, G. Hinshaw +10
Since the Galactic center is ~1000 times brighter than fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), CMB experiments must carefully account for stray Galactic pickup. We p…
First Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Interpretation of the TT and TE Angular Power Spectrum Peaks
L. Page, M. R. Nolta, C. Barnes +12
The CMB has distinct peaks in both its temperature angular power spectrum (TT) and temperature-polarization cross-power spectrum (TE). From the WMAP data we find the first peak in…
