|
Group index map (Figure 4a). The FITS file is composed of two maps (nmaps=2). The first map contains zero values uniformly, while the second map has the group index at each pixel. |
||
|
SILC400 map with FWHM = 1 degree. This map has been corrected for residual bias. The unit is mK. |
||
|
The smoothed SILC400 map (Figure 4b). The original map (above) has been further smoothed with a Gaussian filter of 1 degree (FWHM=1.414 degree total resolution). The unit is mK. |
||
|
Spherical harmonic coefficients a_lm of SILC400 up to l=200. The a_lm's are defined at the Galactic coordinate system and have a unit of uK. |
||
|
Power spectrum of SILC400 maps up to l=1024. The unit is l(l+1)Cl/2pi (uK2). |
