| − | Three different estimates of the CMB are produced. The subsections below give a brief description of each method, and what are its advantages. Details of the motivations can be found in the corresponding paper <cite>#planck2013-06</cite>[06].
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The CMB data are in thermodynamic temperature units (uK_cmb), and the residuals are in the units of the original sky map (K_cmb for the CMB channels, and MJy/sr for the Galactic channels). As usual, all maps are in Galactic coordinate and use Nested ordering scheme.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | The aim of Sevem is to produce clean CMB maps at one or several frequencies by using a procedure based on template fitting. The templates are internal, i.e., they are constructed from Planck data, avoiding the need for external data sets, which usually complicates the analyses and may introduce inconsistencies. The method has been successfully applied to Planck simulations Leach et al., 2008 and to WMAP polarisation data Fernandez-cobos et al., 2012. In the cleaning process, no assumptions about the foregrounds or noise levels are needed, rendering the technique very robust.

| |
| − | The templates are constructed by subtracting two neighbouring Planck frequency channel maps, after first smoothing them to a common resolution to ensure that the CMB signal is properly removed. A linear combination of the templates is then subtracted from the Planck sky map at the frequency to be cleaned, in order to produce the clean CMB. The coefficients of the linear combination are obtained by minimising the variance of the clean map outside a given mask. Although we exclude very contaminated regions during the minimization, the subtraction is performed for all pixels and, therefore, the cleaned maps cover the full-sky (although we expect that foreground residuals are present in the excluded areas).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | An additional level of flexibility can also be considered: the linear coefficients can be the same for all the sky, or several regions with different sets of coefficients can be considered. The regions are then combined in a smooth way, by weighting the pixels at the boundaries, to avoid discontinuities in the clean maps. In order to take into account the different spectral behaviour of the foregrounds at low and high galactic latitudes, we have chosen to use two regions: the region with the 3 per cent brightest Galactic emission, and the region with the remaining 97 per cent of the sky.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Our final CMB map has then been constructed by combining the 143 and 217 GHz cleaned maps by weighting the maps in harmonic space taking into account the noise level, the resolution and a rough estimation of the foreground residuals of each map (obtained from realistic simulations). This final map has a resolution corresponding to a Gaussian beam of fwhm=5 arcminutes.

In particular, we have cleaned the 100, 143 GHz and 217 GHz maps using four templates constructed as the difference of the following Planck channels (smoothed to a common resolution): (30-44)GHz, (44-70)GHz, (545-353)GHz and (857-545)GHz.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | : Ext 1, 'COMP-MAP' : a CMB signal map accompanied by an uncertainty map, and two mask, all at Nside 2048. The CMB has been inpainted with likely values in regions where it could not be determined (namely over the Galactic Plane and some bright sources); the inpainted area covers ~3% of the sky. The uncertainty map is derived from the half-ring maps, which thus misses the low frequency components of the noise, but provides a reasonable estimate of the uncertainties at hi l, but not at low l, where residuals from the foregrounds become important. The masks are a validity mask to indicate where the resulting CMB is considered valid, and an inpainting mask to indicate where the CMB was inpainted.

| |
| − | ====Sky mask====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The delivered mask is defined as the sky region where the fitting procedure was conducted and the solutions presented here were obtained. It is made by masking a region where the Galactic emission is too intense to perform the fitting, plus the masking of brightest point sources.

| |
| − | CODE: COMMANDER-RULER. The code exploits a parametrization of CMB and main diffuse foreground observables. The naive resolution of input
| |
| − | frequency channels is reduced to Nside=256 first. Parameters related to the foreground scaling with frequency are estimated at that resolution
| |
| − | by using Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis using Gibbs sampling. The foreground parameters make the foreground mixing matrix which is
| |
| − | applied to the data at full resolution in order to obtain the provided products at Nside=2048. In the Planck paper P06-Component Separation <cite>#planck2013-p06</cite> additional material is discussed, specifically concerning the sky region where the solutions are reliable, in terms of chi2 maps.

| − | === Dust optical depth map and model ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Thermal emission from interstellar dust is captured by Planck-HFI over the whole sky, at all frequencies from 100 to 857 GHz. This emission is well modelled by a modified black body in the far-infrared to millimeter range. It is produced by the biggest interstellar dust grain that are in thermal equilibrium with the radiation field from stars. The grains emission properties in the sub-millimeter are therefore directly linked to their absorption properties in the UV-visible range. By modelling the thermal dust emission in the sub-millimeter, a map of dust reddening in the visible can then be constructed.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Model of thermal dust emission'''<br>
| |
| − | The model of the thermal dust emission is based on a modify black body fit to the data I_nu: <br>
| |
| − | I_nu = A B_nu(T) nu^beta.<br>
| |
| − | where B_nu(T) is the Planck function for dust equilibirum temperature T, A is the amplitude of the MBB and beta the dust spectral index. The dust optical depth at frequency nu is :<br>
| |
| − | Tau_nu = I_nu / B_nu(T) = A nu^beta
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The dust parameters provided are T, beta and Tau_353. They were obtained by fitting the Planck data at 353, 545 and 857 GHz together with the IRAS (IRIS) 100 micron data. All maps (in Healpix nside=2048) were smoothed to a common resolution of 5 arcmin. The CMB anisotropies, clearly visible at 353 GHz, were removed from all the HFI maps using the SMICA map.
| |
| − | An offset was removed from each map to obtained a meaningful Galactic zero level, using a correlation with the LAB 21 cm data in diffuse areas of the sky (N_HI < 2x10^20 cm^-2). Because the dust emission is so well correlated between frequencies in the Rayleigh-Jeans part of the dust spectrum, the zero level of the 545 and 353 GHz were improved by correlating with the 857 GHz over a larger mask (N_HI < 3x10^20 cm^-2). Faint residual dipole structures, identified in the 353 and 545 GHz maps, were removed prior to the fit.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The MBB fit was performed using a chi-square minimization, assuming errors for each data point that include instrumental noise, calibration uncertainties (on both the dust emission and the CMB anisotropies) and uncertainties on the zero level. Because of the known degeneracy between T and Beta in the presence of noise, we produced a model of dust emission using data smoothed to 35 arcmin; at such resolution no systematic bias of the parameters is observed. The map of the spectral index Beta at 35 arcmin was than used to fit the data for T and Tau_353 at 5 arcmin.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''E(B-V) map :'''<br>
| |
| − | For the production of the E(B-V) map, we used Planck and IRAS data from which point sources in diffuse areas were removed to avoid contamination by galaxies.
| |
| − | In the hypothesis of constant dust emission cross-section, the optical depth map Tau_353 is proportional to dust column density. It can then be used to estimate E(B-V), also proportional to dust column density in the hypothesis of a constant differential absorption cross-section between the B and V bands. Given those assumptions : <br>
| |
| − | E(B-V) = q Tau_353.<br>
| |
| − | To estimate the calibration factor q, we followed a method similar to Mortsell (2013) based on SDSS reddening measurements (E(g-r) which corresponds closely to E(B-V)) of 77 429 Quasars (Schneider et al. 2007). The interstellar HI column densities covered on the lines of sight of this sample ranges from 0.5 to 10x10^20 cm^-2. Therefore this sample allows to estimate q in the diffuse ISM where dust properties are expected to vary less than in denser clouds where coagulation and grain growth might modify dust emission and absorption cross sections.

| − | === CO emission maps ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | CO rotational transition line emission is present in all HFI bands but for the 143 GHz channel. It is especially significant in the 100, 217 and 353 GHz channels (due to the 115 (1-0), 230 (2-1) and 345 GHz (3-2) CO transitions). This emission comes essentially from the Galactic interstellar medium and is mainly located at low and intermediate Galactic latitudes. Three approaches (summarised below) have been used to extract CO velocity-integrated emission maps from HFI maps and to make three types of CO products. An introduction is given in [[Science#CO_maps|Section]] and a full description of these products is given in <cite>#planck2013-p03a</cite>.
| |
| − | * Type 1 product: it is based on a single channel approach using the fact that each CO line has a slightly different transmission in each bolometer at a given frequency channel. These transmissions can be evaluated from bandpass measurements that were performed on the ground or empirically determined from the sky using existing ground-based CO surveys. From these, the J=1-0, J=2-1 and J=3-2 CO lines can be extracted independently. As this approach is based on individual bolometer maps of a single channel, the resulting Signal-to-Noise ratio (SNR) is relatively low. The benefit, however, is that these maps do not suffer from contamination from other HFI channels (as is the case for the other approaches) and are more reliable, especially in the Galactic Plane.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Type 2 product: this product is obtained using a multi frequency approach. Three frequency channel maps are combined to extract the J=1-0 (using the 100, 143 and 353 GHz channels) and J=2-1 (using the 143, 217 and 353 GHz channels) CO maps. Because frequency channels are combined, the spectral behaviour of other foregrounds influences the result. The two type 2 CO maps produced in this way have a higher SNR than the type 1 maps at the cost of a larger possible residual contamination from other diffuse foregrounds.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Type 3 product: using prior information on CO line ratios and a multi-frequency component separation method, we construct a combined CO emission map with the largest possible SNR. This type 3 product can be used as a sensitive finder chart for low-intensity diffuse CO emission over the whole sky.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The released Type 1 CO maps have been produced using the MILCA-b algorithm, Type 2 maps using a specific implementation of the Commander algorithm, and the Type 3 map using the full Commander-Ruler component separation pipeline (see [[Astrophysical_component_maps#Maps_of_astrophysical_foregrounds|above]]).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Characteristics of the released maps are the following. We provide Healpix maps with Nside=2048. For one transition, the CO velocity-integrated line signal map is given in K_RJ.km/s units. A conversion factor from this unit to the native unit of HFI maps (K_CMB) is provided in the header of the data files and in the RIMO. Four maps are given per transition and per type:
| |
| − | * The signal map
| |
| − | * The standard deviation map (same unit as the signal),
| |
| − | * A null test noise map (same unit as the signal) with similar statistical properties. It is made out of half the difference of half-ring maps.
| |
| − | * A mask map (0B or 1B) giving the regions (1B) where the CO measurement is not reliable because of some severe identified foreground contamination.

| |
| − | All products of a given type belong to a single file.
| |
| − | Type 1 products have the native HFI resolution i.e. approximately 10, 5 and 5 arcminutes for the CO 1-0, 2-1, 3-2 transitions respectively.
| |
| − | Type 2 products have a 15 arcminute resolution
| |
| − | The Type 3 product has a 5.5 arcminute resolution.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A typical header for these data is given below. It contains a keyword giving the conversion between the CO velocity-integrated units (K.km/s) and the HFI map native units (K_CMB). However, users are to use CO subtraction with care, as it will necessarily add noise to the result.
