Zodiacal Light Emission in Cosmological Missions
Abstract
This contribution reviews the most difficult observational aspect of Zodiacal Light Emission (ZLE) in CMB missions below 1 THz: its separability from the background. We compare the background subtraction based on the use of priors and on differential methods exploiting signal time dependence. We illustrate the impact of systematics such as the straylight. Finally, we address the problem of differences in the ZLE geometrical properties possibly relevant at these frequencies.
