Abstract
The main scientific goal for European Space Agency's
Planck mission is to measure Cosmic Microwave Background
(GMB) radiation anisotropy with a great angular
resolution, the accuracy of which is only limited by the
laws of astropbysics. In addition to the telescope, The
Planck spacecraft will have two instruments on board: Low
Frequency Instrument (LFI) and High Frequency Instrument
(HFI). The LFI comprises receivers for 30, 44, 70 and 100
GHz frequencies. The HFI, for its part, has receives for
frequencies of 100, 143, 217, 353, 545 and 857 GHz using
bolometers.
