Our initial foray into the Planck archives: Here's the spreadsheet with our group data ... File:FirstData.xlsx --CJohnson 18:40, 13 February 2012 (PST)

Here's the spreadsheet with my data included. File:SecondData.xlsx --CJohnson 18:23, 31 March 2012 (PDT)

Okay, here's a third version of our flux spreadsheet. Differences from previous versions ... inclusion of RA and Dec (to help when using SDSS to categorize our sources), Planck fluxes in Jy, slight corrections in WISE fluxes. File:FluxData 03April.xlsx --CJohnson 08:47, 5 April 2012 (PDT)

File:FluxData 17April.xlsx Here is the file with my values for W4 and temperature. Please check to see why there are disagreements between my values and yours. RRC; 17 April 2012
