Planck Intermediate Results. I. Further validation of new Planck clusters with XMM-Newton

The Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +182

We present further results from the ongoing XMM-Newton validation follow-up of Planck cluster candidates, detailing X-ray observations of eleven candidates detected at a signal-to-…

Planck Early Results: Statistical properties of extragalactic radio sources in the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +201

The data reported in Planck's Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) are exploited to measure the number counts (dN/dS) of extragalactic radio sources at 30, 44, 70, 100, 1…

Planck Early Results: Origin of the submm excess dust emission in the Magellanic Clouds

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +197

The integrated Spectral Energy Distributions of the Large and Small Magellanic Cloud appear significantly flatter than expected from dust models based on their FIR and radio emissi…

Planck Early Results: The Planck View of Nearby Galaxies

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +192

The all-sky coverage of the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) provides an unsurpassed survey of galaxies at submillimetre (submm) wavelengths, representing a ma…

Planck Early Results: The Galactic Cold Core Population revealed by the first all-sky survey

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +202

We present the statistical properties of the first version of the Cold Core Catalogue of Planck Objects (C3PO), in terms of their spatial distribution, temperature, distance, mass,…

Planck Early Results: All sky temperature and dust optical depth from Planck and IRAS: Constraints on the "dark gas" in our galaxy

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +204

We construct an all-sky map of the apparent temperature and optical depth of thermal dust emission using the Planck-HFI and IRAS data. The optical depth maps are correlated to trac…

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 XXIV: Dust in the diffuse interstellar medium and the Galactic halo

Planck Collaboration, A. Abergel, P. A. R. Ade +205

This paper presents the first results of comparison of Planck along with IRAS data with Green Bank Telescope 21-cm observations in 14 fields covering more than 800 square degrees a…

Planck early results. XXI. Properties of the interstellar medium in the Galactic plane

Planck Collaboration, A. Abergel, P. A. R. Ade +199

(abridged) Planck has observed the entire sky from 30 GHz to 857GHz. The observed foreground emission contains contributions from different phases of the interstellar medium (ISM).…

Planck Early Results XVIII: The power spectrum of cosmic infrared background anisotropies

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +202

Using Planck maps of six regions of low Galactic dust emission with a total area of about 140 square degrees, we determine the angular power spectra of cosmic infrared background (…

Planck early results. IX. XMM-Newton follow-up for validation of Planck cluster candidates

Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +197

We present the XMM-Newton follow-up for confirmation of Planck cluster candidates. Twenty-five candidates have been observed to date using snapshot (~10 ksec) exposures, ten as par…

Planck Early Results VIII: The all-sky Early Sunyaev-Zeldovich cluster sample

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +235

We present the first all-sky sample of galaxy clusters detected blindly by the Planck satellite through the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect from its six highest frequencies. This ear…

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…
