CADE currently only distributes a PILOT Stokes I map and normalised PILOT Stokes Q and U maps of a 4° x 7° field (-2°<l<2°, -4°<b<3°) covering the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way. PILOT data for other regions will be added to this page in the future. The PILOT CMZ data were obtained during the Alice Springs 2017 flight, and have an angular resolution of 2.2 arcminutes. The scientific analysis of the PILOT CMZ data is presented in Mangilli et al (2019, see references below). | CADE currently only distributes a PILOT Stokes I map and normalised PILOT Stokes Q and U maps of a 4° x 7° field (-2°<l<2°, -4°<b<3°) covering the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way.

- | The units of the Stokes I data are ''MJy/sr''. The Stokes Q and U data have been scaled to yield an artificial polarization fraction of 100%. With this normalisation, the PILOT Stokes Q and U maps are suitable for deriving the dust polarization angle, but not the dust polarization fraction. | + | The units of the Stokes I data are ''MJy/sr''.
