Five regions in each of the foregrounds (free-free, synchrotron and anomalous dust) were selected for study which were minimally contaminated by the others. The standard templates (H-alpha, 408 MHz and 100-micron dust) were used in both a T-T and a cross-correlation analysis.
The emissivity of each component in the WMAP frequency range was determined. The implications for determining the correction for CMB foreground emission, both in total power and polarization, are discussed.

CONCLUSIONS
The spectra of the free-free and synchrotron components were essentially as expected. For free-free the electron temperature is in the range 7000 – 8000K, with a spectral index of -2.13. The synchrotron spectral index at WMAP frequencies is -3.0 to -3.1.
However the anomalous dust emissivity varies by a factor of 2 from cloud to cloud.
The construction of an anomalous dust template for Planck will need to account for this varying emissivity. The predicted polarized emission from dust may be similarly affected.
