External papers that make use of public Planck data

An attempt to provide a list of papers produced by scientists not representing the Planck Collaboration but based on public Planck data is provided below. The list was generated using the search functionality of the ADS, followed by a manual modification of the resulting list, i.e., we include papers that somehow make use of Planck data and have been accepted for publication. Note that this list may be incomplete.

Non-Planck papers which make use of public Planck data.

 

ErratA

Planck intermediate results. XV. A study of anomalous microwave emission in Galactic clouds, 2014 A&A 565, A103
There is a typo in the unit of the $\tau_{250}$ column of Table 3, resulting in all the values listed being a factor of 10 smaller than they should be. The values have been multiplied by 10^4 and not 10^5 as listed in the previously published version. All the values relating to $\tau_{250}$ in the main body of text and figures remain correct. An erratum has been submitted to A&A.
