Abstract

We present the BOOMERanG-03 experiment and maps of the Stokes parameters I, Q, U of the microwave sky obtained during a 14 day balloon flight in 2003. Three regions of the southern sky were surveyed: a deep survey (~ 90 square degrees) and a shallow survey (~ 750 square degrees) at high Galactic latitudes (both centered at RA ~ 5.5 h, dec ~ -45 deg) and a survey of ~ 300 square degrees across the Galactic plane at RA ~ 9.1 h, dec ~ -47 deg. All three surveys were carried out in three wide frequency bands centered at 145, 245 and 345 GHz, with an angular resolution of ~ 10'. The 145 GHz maps of Stokes I are dominated by Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature anisotropy, which is mapped with high signal to noise ratio. The measured anisotropy pattern is consistent with the pattern measured in the same region by BOOMERanG-98 and by WMAP. The 145 GHz maps of Stokes Q and U provide a robust statistical detection of polarization of the CMB when subjected to a power spectrum analysis. This amplitude of the polarization is consistent with that of the CMB in the $\Lambda$CDM cosmological scenario. At 145 GHz, in the CMB surveys, the intensity and polarization of the astrophysical foregrounds are found to be negligible with respect to the cosmological signal. At 245 and 345 GHz we detect ISD emission correlated to the 3000 GHz IRAS/DIRBE maps, and give upper limits for any other non-CMB component. We also present intensity maps of the surveyed section of the Galactic plane. These are compared to monitors of different interstellar components, showing that a variety of emission mechanisms is present in that region., Comment: see http://oberon.roma1.infn.it/boomerang/b2k and http://cmb.phys.cwru.edu/boomerang/ for a high resolution version

Abstract

24 páginas, 16 figuras, 5 tablas.-- et al., This paper provides an overview of the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) programme within the ESA Planck mission. The LFI instrument has been developed to produce high precision maps of the microwave sky at frequencies in the range 27–77 GHz, below the peak of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation spectrum. The scientific goals are described, ranging from fundamental cosmology to Galactic and extragalactic astrophysics. The instrument design and development are outlined, together with the model philosophy and testing strategy. The instrument is presented in the context of the Planck mission. The LFI approach to ground and inflight calibration is described. We also describe the LFI ground segment. We present the results of a number of tests demonstrating the capability of the LFI data processing centre (DPC) to properly reduce and analyse LFI flight data, from telemetry information to calibrated and cleaned time ordered data, sky maps at each frequency (in temperature and polarization), component emission maps (CMB and diffuse foregrounds), catalogs for various classes of sources (the Early Release Compact Source Catalogue and the Final Compact Source Catalogue). The organization of the LFI consortium is briefly presented as well as the role of the core team in data analysis and scientific exploitation. All tests carried out on the LFI flight model demonstrate the excellent performance of the instrument and its various subunits. The data analysis pipeline has been tested and its main steps verified. In the first three months after launch, the commissioning, calibration, performance, and verification phases will be completed, after which Planck will begin its operational life, in which LFI will have an integral part., The Planck-LFI project is developed by an International Consortium led by Italy and involving Canada, Finland, Germany, Norway, Spain, Switzerland, UK and USA. The Italian contribution to Planck is supported by the Agenzia Spaziale Italiana (ASI) and INAF. We also wish to thank the many people of the Herschel/Planck Project and RSSD of ESA, ASI, THALES Alenia Space Industries and the LFI Consortium that have contributed to the realization of LFI. We are grateful to our HFI colleagues for such a fruitful collaboration during so many years of common work. The German participation at the Max-Planck-Institut für Astrophysik is funded by the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Technologie through the Raumfahrt- Agentur of the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) [FKZ: 50 OP 0901] and by the Max-Planck-Gesellschaft (MPG). The Finnish contribution is supported by the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation (Tekes) and the Academy of Finland. The Spanish participation is funded by Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion through the project ESP2004-07067-C03 and AYA2007-68058-C03. The UK contribution is supported by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC). C. Baccigalupi and F. Perrotta acknowledge partial support of the NASA LTSA Grant NNG04CG90G.
