Diffuse radio recombination line emission on the galactic plane

A full-sky free-free template is increasingly important for the high-sensitivity Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiments, such as Planck. On the Galactic plane, where free-free estimations from Halpha measurements become unreliable, Radio Recombination Lines (RRLs) can be used to determine the...
