Planck 2013 results. VI. High Frequency Instrument data processing
We describe the processing of the 531 billion raw data samples from the High Frequency Instrument (HFI), which we performed to produce six temperature maps from the first 473 days of Planck-HFI survey data. These maps provide an accurate rendition of the sky emission at 100, 143, 217, 353, 545, and 857GHz with an angular resolution ranging from 9.́7 to 4.́6. The detector noise per (effective) beam solid angle is respectively, 10, 6 , 12, and 39 μK in the four lowest HFI frequency channels (100−353GHz) and 13 and 14 kJy sr-1 in the 545 and 857 GHz channels. Relative to the 143 GHz channel, these two high frequency channels are calibrated to within 5% and the 353 GHz channel to the percent level. The 100 and 217 GHz channels, which together with the 143 GHz channel determine the high-multipole part of the CMB power spectrum (50 <ℓ < 2500), are calibrated relative to 143 GHz to better than 0.2%
Planck 2013 results. VI. High Frequency Instrument data processing
We describe the processing of the 531 billion raw data samples from the High Frequency Instrument (hereafter HFI), which we performed to produce six temperature maps from the first 473 days of Planck-HFI survey data. These maps provide an accurate rendition of the sky emission at 100, 143, 217, 353, 545, and 857 GHz with an angular resolution ranging from 9.7 to 4.6 arcmin. The detector noise per (effective) beam solid angle is respectively, 10, 6, 12 and 39 microKelvin in HFI four lowest frequency channel (100--353 GHz) and 13 and 14 kJy/sr for the 545 and 857 GHz channels. Using the 143 GHz channel as a reference, these two high frequency channels are intercalibrated within 5% and the 353 GHz relative calibration is at the percent level. The 100 and 217 GHz channels, which together with the 143 GHz channel determine the high-multipole part of the CMB power spectrum (50 < l <2500), are intercalibrated at better than 0.2 %
Planck 2013 results X. Energetic particle effects: characterization, removal, and simulation
This paper presents the detection, interpretation and removal of the signal
resulting from interactions of high energy particles with the Planck High
Frequency Instrument (HFI). These interactions fall into two categories,
heating the 0.1 K bolometer plate and glitches in each detector time stream.
Glitch shapes are not simple single pole exponential decays and fall into a
three families. The glitch shape for each family has been characterized
empirically in flight data and removed from the detector time streams. The
spectrum of the count rate/unit energy is computed for each family and a
correspondence to where on the detector the particle hit is made. Most of the
detected glitches are from galactic protons incident on the Si die frame
supporting the micromachined bolometric detectors. At HFI, the particle flux is
~ 5 per square cm and per second and is dominated by protons incident on the
spacecraft with an energy >39 MeV, leading to a rate of typically one event per
second and per detector. Different categories of glitches have different
signature in timestreams. Two of the glitch types have a low amplitude
component that decays over nearly 1 second. This component produces an excess
noise if not properly removed from the time ordered data. We have used a glitch
detection and subtraction method based on the joint fit of population
templates. The application of this novel glitch removal method removes excess
noise from glitches. Using realistic simulations, we find this method does not
introduce signal bias.Comment: 23 pages; v2: author list complete
