Large Radio Telescopes for Anomalous Microwave Emission Observations

Table 1

Individual galactic and extragalactic regions with reported detections of AME. The frequency and the resolution refer to the observations discovering the AME even when the same regions have been observed by other experiments at different frequency and angular resolution. Planck detections relate to the early release. Several other regions have already been announced in the intermediate release.
