Catalogue of Compact Sources[edit]
The second Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources (PCCS2) is a set of single-frequency source catalogues extracted from the Planck full-mission maps in intensity and polarization. The catalogues have been constructed as described in PCCS and in section 2 of Planck-2015-A26[1]. The validation of the catalogues is described in section 3 of Planck-2015-A26[1].
The PCCS2 is divided into two sub-catalogues in each frequency channel. The main PCCS2 catalogues consist of the sources detected in regions of the sky where it is possible to estimate the reliability of the detections, either statistically or by using external catalogues. Sources detected in regions of the sky where it is not possible to make an estimate of their reliability have been excluded from the main catalogue, but have been made available as the PCCS2E. By definition, the reliability of the PCCS2 is ≥ 80%, and a flag is available that allows the user to select a subsample of sources with a higher level of reliability (e.g., 90% or 95%).
The nine Planck full-mission frequency channel maps are used as input to the source detection pipelines. They contain 48 months of data for LFI channels and 29 months of data for HFI channels. Therefore the flux densities of sources obtained from the full-mission maps are the average of at least 8 observations for LFI channels or at least 4 observations for HFI channels. The relevant properties of the frequency maps and main parameters used to generate the catalogues are summarized in Tables 1 and 2.
Four different photometry methods have been used. For one of the methods, the native photometry from the Mexican hat wavelet detection algorithm, the analysis is performed on patches containing tangent plane projections of the map. For the other methods (aperture photometry, point spread function fitting, and Gaussian fitting), the analysis is performed directly on the full-sky maps.
The analysis in polarization has been performed in a non-blind fashion, looking at the position of the sources previously detected in intensity. As a result, polarization flux densities and polarization angles have been measured for hundreds of sources with a significance >99.99%. This high threshold in significance has been chosen to minimize the possibility of misinterpreting a peak of the polarized background as a source. This implies that, in general, most of the polarized sources are very bright, introducing an additional selection effect.

Notes
- Format is PCCS2 fff Glll.ll±bb.bb for sources in the PCCS2 and PCCS2E fff Glll.ll±bb.bb for sources in the PCCS2E, where fff is the frequency channel and (l, b) is the position of the source in Galactic coordinates truncated to two decimal places.
- We follow the IAU/IEEE convention (Hamaker & Bregman 1996) for defining the angle of polarization of a source, and this convention is also used for the other angles in the catalogue. The angle is measured from the North Galactic Pole in a clockwise direction from -90 to 90 degrees.
- Provided when the significance of the polarization measurement is > 99.99% and set to NULL otherwise.
- The P_STAT flag gives the status of the marginal polarization detection, possible values are:
- 3 – Bright: P field filled in; all PX fields set to NULL.
- 2 – Significant: P field is set to NULL; 0 is outside the PX 95% HPD; all PX fields are filled.
- 1 – Marginal: P field is set to NULL; 0 is inside the PX 95% HPD, but mode of PX posterior distribution is not 0; all PX fields are filled.
- 0 – No detection: P field is set to NULL; mode of PX posterior distribution is 0; PX_ERRL, ANGLE_PX, ANGLE_PX_ERR_LOWER, and ANGLE_PX_ERR_UPPER are set to NULL.
- The EXTENDED flag has the value of 0 if the source is compact and the value of 1 is it extended. The source size is determined by the geometric mean of the Gaussian fit FWHMs, with the criterion for extension being sqrt(GAU_FWHMMAJ * GAU_FWHMIN) > 1.5 times the beam FWHM.
- The EXT_VAL flag gives the status of the external validation, possible values are:
- 3 – The source has a clear counterpart in one of the catalogues used as ancillary data.
- 2 – The source does not have a clear counterpart in one of the catalogues used as ancillary data but it has been detected by the internal multi-frequency method.
- 1 – The source does not have a clear counterpart in one of the catalogues used as ancillary data and it has not been detected by the internal multi-frequency method, but it has been detected in a previous Planck source catalogue.
- 0 – The source does not have a clear counterpart in one of the catalogues used as ancillary data and it has not been detected by the internal multi-frequency method.
- The HIGHEST_RELIABILTY_CAT column contains the highest reliability catalogue to which the source belongs. As the full catalogue reliability is ≥ 80%, this is the lowest possible value in this column. Where possible this is provided in steps of 1% otherwise it is in steps of 5%.
- The WHICH_ZONE column encodes the zone in which the source lies:
- 1 – source lies inside filament mask.
- 2 – source lies inside Galactic zone.
- 3 – sources lies in both filament mask and Galactic zone.

SZ Catalogue[edit]
The Planck SZ catalogue is constructed as described in SZ catalogue and in sections 2 and 3 of Planck-2015-A27[2]. Three pipelines are used to detect SZ clusters: two independent implementations of the Matched Multi-Filter (MMF1 and MMF3), and PowellSnakes (PwS). The main catalogue is constructed as the union of the catalogues from the three detection methods. The completeness and reliability of the catalogues have been assessed through internal and external validation as described in section 4 of Planck-2015-A27[2].
The size of a detection is given in terms of the scale size, θs, and the flux is given in terms of the total integrated Comptonization parameter, Y = Y5R500. The parameters of the GNFW profile assumed by the detection pipelines are written in the headers of the catalogues. For the sake of convenience, the conversion factor from Y to Y500 is also provided in the header.
The union catalogue contains the coordinates of a detection, its signal-to-noise ratio, an estimate of Y and its uncertainty, together with a summary of the validation information, including external identification of a cluster and its redshift if they are available. The pipeline from which the information is taken is called the reference pipeline. If more than one pipeline makes the same detection, the information is taken from the the pipeline that makes the most significant detection. Where the redshift is known, we provide the SZ mass for the reference pipeline.
The individual catalogues contain the coordinates and the signal-to-noise ratio of the detections, and information on the size and flux of the detections. The entries are cross-referenced to the detections in the union catalogue. The full information on the degeneracy between θs and Y is included in the individual catalogues in the form of the two-dimensional probability distribution for each detection. It is computed on a well-sampled grid to produce a two-dimensional image for each detection. It is provided in this form so it can be combined with a model or external data to produce tighter constraints on the parameters. The individual catalogues also contain Planck measurements of the SZ mass observable, MSZ, as calculated using a Y-M scaling relation and an assumed redshift to break the Y-θs degeneracy. These are provided for each detection as functions of assumed redshift, in the range 0.01 < z < 1, along with the upper and lower 68% confidence limits.
The selection function of the union catalogue, the intersection catalogue and the individual catalogues are provided in additional files. The selection function files contains the probability of detection for clusters of given intrinsic parameters θ500 and Y500. The file includes the definition of the survey area in the form of a HEALPix mask, and is evaluated for a range of signal-to-noise thresholds between 4.5 and 10.

Notes
- Format PSZ2 Glll.ll±bb.bb where (l, b) are the Galactic coordinates truncated to 2 decimal places.
- Extension 2 contains a three-dimensional image with the two-dimensional probability distribution in θs and Y for each detection. The probability distributions are evaluated on a 256 × 256 linear grid between the limits specified in extension 1. The limits are determined independently for each detection. The dimension of the 3D image is 256 × 256 × Ndet, where Ndet is the number of detections. The first dimension is θs and the second dimension is Y.
- Extension 3 contains a three-dimensional image with the information on the MSZ observable per cluster as a function of assumed redshift. The image dimensions are 100 × 4 × Ndet, where Ndet is the number of detections. The first dimension is the assumed redshift. The second dimension has size 4: the first element is the assumed redshift value corresponding to the MSZ values. The second element is the MSZ lower 68% confidence bound, the third element is the MSZ estimate and the fourth element is the MSZ upper 68% confidence bound, all in units of 1014 Msol. These uncertainties are based on the Planck measurement uncertainties only. Not included in the error estimates are the statistical errors on the scaling relation, the intrinsic scatter in the relation, or systematic errors in data selection for the scaling relation fit.

Galactic Cold Clumps Catalogue[edit]
The Planck Galactic Cold Clumps Catalogue (PGCC) is a list of 13188 Galactic sources and 54 sources located in the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds, which have been identified in Planck data as cold sources compared to their environment. It has been buit using the 48 month Planck data at 857, 545, and 353 GHz combined with the 3 THz IRIS data, as it is described in Planck-2015-A28[3].
The all-sky distribution of the PGCC sources is shown below on top of the 857 GHz emission shown in logarithmic scale between 10-2 to 102 MJy/sr.
Three categories of sources are built based on the reliability of the flux density estimates in IRIS 3 THz and Planck 857, 545, and 353 GHz bands.
- FLUX_QUALITY=1 : sources with flux density estimates exhibiting S/N > 1 in all bands ;
- FLUX_QUALITY=2 : sources with flux density estimates exhibiting S/N > 1 only in 857, 545, and 353 GHz Planck bands, an considered as very cold candidates ;
- FLUX_QUALITY=3 : sources without any reliable flux density estimates, listed as poor candidates.
The all-sky distributions of the PGCC sources per FLUX_QUALITY category are shown below on top of the 857 GHz map in grey scale shown in logarithmic scale between 10-2 to 102 MJy/sr.
Distance estimates have been obtained on 5574 PGCC sources using seven different technics, as described in Planck-2015-A28[3]. The flag is raised to quantify the quality of the distance estimates, defined as follows:
- DIST_QUALITY=0 : No distance estimate ;
- FLUX_QUALITY=1 : Single distance estimate ;
- FLUX_QUALITY=2 : Multiple distance estimates which are consistent within 1 ;
- FLUX_QUALITY=3 : Multiple distance estimates which are not consistent within 1.
- FLUX_QUALITY=4 : Single upper limits.
The all-sky distribution of the sources with robust distance estimates is shown below.
All-sky distribution of the 4655 PGCC Galactic cold clumps for which a distance estimate with a DIST_QUALITY flag equal to 1 or 2 is available. The various types of distance estimates are defined as follows : kinematic (purple), optical extinction (blue), near-infrared extinction (green), molecular complex association (orange), and Herschel HKP-GCC (red). We also show the distribution of the 664 sources with an upper-limit estimate (DIST_QUALITY=4) provided by the near-infrared extinction method in light green. The regions covered by the molecular complexes are shown as black contours.
The catalogue is contained in the FITS file HFI_PCCS_GCC_R2.02.fits. It structure is as follows:
