Abstract

We study the astrophysical foreground emissions in the context of the effort for constraining the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy non-Gaussianity (NG). We parametrize the NG signal by an equivalent f NL evaluated through the Komatsu-Spergel-Wandelt (KSW) estimator and induced by the known Galactic emissions. We analysed foregrounds template and CMB at 70 GHz adopting Planck specifications and finding a possible induced bias inconsistent with zero at 8s for a mask of 70% of free sky coverage.
