In order to create these Planck reference sky maps we need to generate the maps for all the components according to Planck Reference Sky at WMAP frequency and co-add these maps. [cmb+3 diffuse components (dust synch and free-free)+3 sources components * 5channel =35 map]

Plots:
In the firs column: the WMAP maps in logarithmic scale
In the second column: the Planck Reference Sky maps in linear scale
In the third column: the Planck Reference Sky maps in logarithmic scale

If you are curious how the different component look like at different frequency I suggest this page of my weblog: sara's components maps
