In-flight calibration and verification of the Planck-LFI instrument
Anna Gregorio, Francesco Cuttaia, Aniello Mennella +40
In this paper we discuss the Planck-LFI in-flight calibration campaign. After a brief overview of the ground test campaigns, we describe in detail the calibration and performance v…
Planck early results. III. First assessment of the Low Frequency Instrument in-flight performance
A. Mennella, M. Bersanelli, R. C. Butler +158
The scientific performance of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) after one year of in-orbit operation is presented. We describe the main optical parameters and discuss photo…
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…
A systematic approach to the Planck LFI end-to-end test and its application to the DPC Level 1 pipeline
M. Frailis, M. Maris, A. Zacchei +23
The Level 1 of the Planck LFI Data Processing Centre (DPC) is devoted to the handling of the scientific and housekeeping telemetry. It is a critical component of the Planck ground…
Design, development and verification of the 30 and 44 GHz front-end modules for the Planck Low Frequency Instrument
R. J. Davis, A. Wilkinson, R. D. Davies +28
We give a description of the design, construction and testing of the 30 and 44 GHz Front End Modules (FEMs) for the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) of the Planck mission to be launc…
