INAF-OSS. ASTRON. DI TRIESTE and DAUT SEMINAR
*************************************************************
 
Speaker: Carlo Baccigalupi (SISSA - Trieste)

Title: Cosmic Microwave Background and Planck: science and challenges

Date:  Wednesday,  February 15 ,  2006
Time:  12:00 noon
Venue: Villa Bazzoni (via Bazzoni, 2) -Seminar room, ground floor
******************************************
Abstract: We review the current knowledge of anisotropies in the cosmic
microwave background (CMB) and the implications for cosmology and
particle physics; we describe the CMB pattern is still hidden to the 
observations,
in total intensity and polarization. We briefly discuss the ongoing CMB 
observation projects
and their scientific expectations, focusing on the Planck satellite. We 
describe
the Planck launch and data analysis schedule, the overall structure of 
the project
and the Data Processing Centers (DPCs) in Paris-Cambridge (IaP and IoA)
and Trieste (OAT and SISSA). We review the data flow and reduction from
the spinning satellite to the sky maps, outlining the challenges
which need to be faced in order to achieve a full scientific 
exploitation of the data.
