It will also provide full-sky maps of astrophysicalforegrounds. An accurate knowledge of the telescope beam patterns is an essential element for a correct analysis of the acquiredastrophysical data. We present a detailed description of the optical design of the High Frequency Instrument (HFI) together with someof the optical performances measured during the calibration campaigns. We report on the evolution of the knowledge of the pre-launchHFI beam patterns when coupled to ideal telescope elements, and on their significance for the HFI data analysis procedure.Key words. space vehicles: instruments – submillimeter: general – telescopes – cosmic microwave background –instrumentation: polarimeters – instrumentation: detectors1. IntroductionThe primary objective of the <strong>Planck</strong> mission 1 (Tauber et al.2010b) istomeasurethetemperaturefluctuationsofthecosmicmicrowave background (CMB) with an accuracy limited only byastrophysical processes. This will greatly improve constraints onthe values of fundamental cosmological parameters, such as thedensity parameter Ω, theHubbleparameterH 0 and the cosmologicalconstant Λ. Inaddition,<strong>Planck</strong> will deliver a wealth ofinformation on the polarisationpropertiesoftheCMB.Becauseof its extended frequency coverage (30−857 GHz), <strong>Planck</strong> willimprove our understanding of foreground emissions from bothGalactic and extragalactic sources.1 <strong>Planck</strong> (http://www.esa.int/<strong>Planck</strong>) isanESAprojectwithinstrumentsprovided by two scientific Consortia funded by ESA memberstates (in particular the lead countries: France and Italy) with contributionsfrom NASA (USA), and telescope reflectors provided in collaborationbetween ESA and a scientific Consortium led and funded byDenmark.The <strong>Planck</strong> payload is equipped with two focal plane instruments,the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) operating in threefrequency bands at 30, 44 and 70 GHz (Bersanelli et al. 2010),and the High Frequency Instrument (HFI) operating in six frequencybands centred at 100, 143, 217, 353, 545 and 857 GHz(Lamarre et al. 2003, 2010). While all the detectors of LFI aredual-linearly-polarised, HFI contains both un-polarised (total intensity)and dual-linearly-polarised pixels. The detectors of thesetwo instruments are optically coupled to an off-axis dual-mirrortelescope through corrugated feedhorns (Tauber et al. 2010a).The primary mirror has a projected diameter of 1.5 m, whichconstitutes a dimensioning parameter of the satellite. The angularresolution of <strong>Planck</strong>, rangingfrom4.5to30arcmin,resultsfrom an under-illumination of the primary reflector that minimizethe spillover (see Sect. 3.2). Since the observed signal arrivingfrom an astronomical source (such as the CMB) will beconvolved with the beam response of the observing instrument,it is of paramount importance to acquire the best possible knowledgeof the instrument.Article published by EDP Sciences Page 1 of 15
