    Planck 2013 results. XXVI. Background geometry and topology of the Universe
    The new cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps from Planck provide the highest-quality full-sky view of the surface of last scattering available to...
  • Publication
    Planck 2013 results. XXVII. Doppler boosting of the CMB: Eppur si muove
    Our velocity relative to the rest frame of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) generates a dipole temperature anisotropy on the sky which has been well...
  • Publication
    Planck 2013 results. XXVIII. The Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources
    The Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources (PCCS) is the catalogue of sources detected in the first 15 months of Planck operations, the “nominal” mission. It...
  • Publication
    Planck 2013 results. XXX. Cosmic infrared background measurements and implications for star formation
    We present new measurements of cosmic infrared background (CIB) anisotropies using Planck. Combining HFI data with IRAS, the angular auto- and cross-frequency...

    Planck 2013 results. XXXI. Consistency of the Planck data
    The Planck design and scanning strategy provide many levels of redundancy that can be exploited to provide tests of internal consistency. One of the most...

    Planck 2015 results. I. Overview of products and scientific results
    The European Space Agency's Planck satellite, which is dedicated to studying the early Universe and its subsequent evolution, was launched on 14 May 2009. It...
  • Publication
    Planck 2015 results. III. LFI systematic uncertainties
    We present the current accounting of systematic effect uncertainties for the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) that are relevant to the 2015 release of the Planck...
  • Publication
    Planck 2015 results. IX. Diffuse component separation: CMB maps
    We present foreground-reduced cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps derived from the full Planck data set in both temperature and polarization. Compared to the...
  • Publication
    Planck 2015 results. X. Diffuse component separation: Foreground maps
    Planck has mapped the microwave sky in temperature over nine frequency bands between 30 and 857 GHz and in polarization over seven frequency bands between 30...
