چکیده
Preliminary results from the June 1991 flight of MAX are presented. Simultaneous observations were made in bands centered at 6, 9, and 12 cm-1 with a bolometric receiver operating at 300 mK. The experimental sensitivities are the highest reported at angular scales of 0.3 degrees to 1.0 degrees. Interstellar dust is observed to have an emissivity [symbol, see text] nu 1.4+/-0.3 and to correlate with the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) 100- map. After removal of emission from interstellar dust, 1.3 hr of integration on a 6 degrees scan yields an upper limit of temperature difference Delta T/T < 2.6 x 10(-5) at a Gaussian autocorrelation function centered at 0.5 degrees. The experiment and data analysis are described.

Archeops: a large sky coverage millimeter experiment for mapping Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies
We present Archeops, a balloon-borne bolometer experiment designed to map a large part of the sky at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths. The main scientific goal is to study the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies on all scales, in order to properly derive the cosmological parameters of the Universe. We present the sky coverage map of the first scientific flight.

In this paper, the electron temperature and ion density of laser-produced plasma in nanosecond regime in different pressure of ambient gas have been studied by using single Langmuir probe. Using the current-voltage characteristics curve of probe, the value of electron temperature in different pressure (range of 10-5×10-5 mbar) is in the range of 2-29 eV and also the ion density estimated about ...

We analyze the Gamma Ursae Minoris (GUM) and Mu Pegasii (MuP) scans of the Millimeter-wave Anisotropy eXperiment in the context of cold dark matter (CDM) models of structure formation, paying particular attention to the two-dimensional nature of the GUM scan. If all of the structure in the (foreground subtracted) data is attributed to cosmic microwave background anisotropy, then there is a dete...

Aims. Archeops is a balloon-borne experiment inspired by the Planck satellite and its high frequency instrument (HFI). It is designed to measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies at high angular resolution (∼12 arcmin) over a large fraction of the sky (around 30%) at 143, 217, 353, and 545 GHz. The Archeops 353 GHz channel consists of three pairs of polarized sensit...
