PLANCK LFIN. MandolesiConsorzio PLANCK-LFI Incontro con Prof. P. Benvenuti IASF/CNR - Sez. di Bologna, Gennaio 2004
? WMAP
The CMB environment, the error world and the TRUE MEASUREMENT The issue is to measure: the known knowns, the known unknowns, the unknown knowns and the unknown unknowns !
PLANCK Systematics effects LFI goal: dT < 3 mK …At mK level there is much more than sidelobes and calibration! • Different • “tools” • required a • Effects due to combination of • (instrument beams) + (sky): • External straylight • Main beam reconstruction b Pointing uncertainties c • Effects generated within the satellite: • Instrument-specific non-idealities • Thermal effects from the satellite • Internal straylight
