Description
The Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources (PCCS) is the catalogue of
sources detected in the first 15 months of Planck operations, the
“nominal” mission. It consists of nine single-frequency
catalogues of compact sources, both Galactic and extragalactic, detected
over the entire sky. The PCCS covers the frequency range 30–857
GHz with higher sensitivity (it is 90% complete at 180 mJy in the best
channel) and better angular resolution (from 32.88' to 4.33') than
previous all-sky surveys in this frequency band. By construction its
reliability is >80% and more than 65% of the sources have been
detected in at least two contiguous Planck channels. In this paper we
present the construction and validation of the PCCS, its contents and
its statistical characterization.
