Rayleigh-Jeans temperature of the combined Saturn ring-disc system at 100 GHz with the WMAP measurements scaled from 94 GHz to match Planck (0.1% upwards scaling). The best-fit ring-disc models for the two data sets are also shown. We use RJ temperature instead of thermodynamic temperature for the Saturn ring-disc system for ease of comparison with WMAP and ACT results. The HFI error bars represent a combination of statistical and systematic error. The systematic error is expected to be strongly correlated between observations. We note that the third Planck-HFI observation of Saturn, corresponding to an inclination angle of + 12.6deg, appears somewhat anomalous.
