Planck 2015 results: XXIII. The thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect-cosmic infrared background correlation

Peter A. R. Ade, +261 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Planck data to detect the cross-correlation between the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect and the infrared emission from the galaxies that make up the cosmic infrared background (CIB).
Journal ArticleDOI

Planck intermediate results. XLII. Large-scale Galactic magnetic fields

R. Adam, +227 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use three different but representative models to compare their predicted polarized synchrotron and dust emission with that measured by the Planck satellite, and find that the dust predictions do not match the morphology in the planck data but underpredict the dust polarization away from the plane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Planck intermediate results: XXXIII. Signature of the magnetic field geometry of interstellar filaments in dust polarization maps

Peter A. R. Ade, +221 more
TL;DR: In this article, the polarization maps of three nearby star-forming filaments of moderate column density (NH about 1022 cm-2) were used to determine the intrinsic polarization properties of the filaments and provide insight into the structure of their magnetic field.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel estimator of the polarization amplitude from normally distributed Stokes parameters

TL;DR: In this article, a new estimator of the polarization amplitude from a single measurement of its normally distributed Stokes components is proposed, based on the properties of the Rice distribution and dubbed "MAS" (Modified ASymptotic), which meets several desirable criteria: its values lie in the whole positive region; its distribution is continuous; it transforms smoothly with the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from a Rayleigh-like shape to a Gaussian one; it is unbiased and reaches its components variance as soon as the SNR exceeds 2; and it

Planck 2013 results - XXXII. The updated Planck catalogue of Sunyaev-Zeldovich sources

Peter A. R. Ade, +324 more
TL;DR: The all-sky Planck catalogue of 1227 clusters and cluster candidates (PSZ1) as discussed by the authors was published in 2013, derived from detections of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect using the first 15.5 months of Planck satellite observations.
