[math]^{\rm a}[/math] Determined by fitting Jupiter observations directly in the timelines.

[math]^{\rm b}[/math] Calculated from the main beam solid angle of the effective beam, [math]\Omega_{\rm eff} = \hbox{mean}(\Omega)[/math]. These values are used in the source extraction pipeline Planck-2013-XXVIII[3] .

[math]^{\rm c}[/math] White noise per pixel computed from half-ring difference maps. These values are within 1% of the white noise sensitivity computed directly on the timelines, taking into account the actual integration time represented in the maps.

[math]^{\rm d}[/math] Values derived from fitting noise spectra.

[math]^{\rm e}[/math] Sum of the error on the estimation of the calibration constant (0.25 %) and the square root of the squared sum of the following errors: beam uncertainty; sidelobe convolution effect; and unknown systematics as measured from the power spectrum at [math]50 \lt \ell \lt 250 [/math] (see Planck-2013-V[4].

[math]^{\rm f}[/math] Peak-to-peak difference between 99% and 1% quantities in the pixel value distributions from simulated maps (see Planck-2013-III[5].
