Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalog (857GHz) @ IA2

The data that went into this early release comprise all observations undertaken between 13 August 2009 and 6 June 2010, corresponding to Planck operational days 91-389. Since the Planck scan strategy results in the entire sky being observed every 6 months, the data considered in this release correspond to more than the first sky coverage.

The source lists have reliability goals of 90% across the entire sky and > 95% at high Galactic latitude. The goals on photometric accuracy are 30% while the positional accuracy goal translates to a positional root mean square (RMS) uncertainty that is less than 1/5 of the beam full width at half maximum (FWHM). ref.: "Planck Early Results: The Early Release Compact Source Catalog" (ADS BibCode: 2011arXiv1101.2041P)
