Planck 2015 results. V. LFI calibration
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +206
We present a description of the pipeline used to calibrate the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) timelines into thermodynamic temperatures for the Planck 2015 data release, cov…
Planck 2015 results. VII. HFI TOI and beam processing
Planck Collaboration, R. Adam, P. A. R. Ade +225
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) has observed the full sky at six frequencies (100, 143, 217, 353, 545, and 857 GHz) in intensity and at four frequencies in linear polari…
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 2013 results. IX. HFI spectral response
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +217
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) spectral response was determined through a series of ground based tests conducted with the HFI focal plane in a cryogenic environment pri…
Planck 2013 results. VII. HFI time response and beams
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +220
This paper characterizes the effective beams,the effective beam window functions and the associated errors for the Planck HFI detectors. The effective beam is the angular response…
Planck 2013 results. V. LFI calibration
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, C. Armitage-Caplan +217
We discuss the methods employed to photometrically calibrate the data acquired by the Low Frequency Instrument on Planck. Our calibration is based on a combination of the Orbital D…
Planck early results: first assessment of the High Frequency Instrument in-flight performance
Planck HFI Core Team, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +163
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) is designed to measure the temperature and polarization anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background and galactic foregrounds in six w…
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…
