Caption: Fig. 5.

Galactic intensity gradients. The left column shows the intensity after the IPD emission and bright sources have been removed as a function of csc |b|. The right column shows the same data after the Faint Source Model has also been subtracted. (csc 15° ≈ 4, csc 30° = 2.0, and csc 60° = 1.15).
