TL;DR: In this paper, the relative orientation between the magnetic field projected on the plane of sky, inferred from the polarized thermal emission of Galactic dust observed by Planck at 353 GHz, and the gas column density structures, quantified by the gradient of the column density, was evaluated pixel by pixel and analysed in bins of column density using the novel statistical tool called "histogram of relative orientations".

TL;DR: The ESA's Planck satellite was launched 14 May 2009 and has been scanning the microwave and sub-millimetre sky continuously since 12 August 2009 as discussed by the authors, where it has measured gravitational lensing of CMB anisotropies at greater than 25 sigma.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed all-sky Compton parameters maps, y-maps, of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect by applying specifically tailored component separation algorithms to the 30 to 857 GHz frequency channel maps from the Planck satellite.

TL;DR: The European Space Agency's Planck satellite, launched on 14 May 2009, is the third-generation space experiment in the field of cosmic microwave background (CMB) research as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the processing applied to the cleaned, time-ordered information obtained from the Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) with the aim of producing photometrically calibrated maps in temperature and (for the first time) in polarization.
