Recent developments in astrophysical and cosmological exploitation of
  microwave surveys
  In this article we focus on the astrophysical results and the related
cosmological implications derived from recent microwave surveys, with emphasis
to those coming from the Planck mission. We critically discuss the impact of
systematics effects and the role of methods to separate the cosmic microwave
background signal from the astrophysical emissions and each different
astrophysical component from the others. We then review of the state of the art
in diffuse emissions, extragalactic sources, cosmic infrared back- ground, and
galaxy clusters, addressing the information they provide to our global view of
the cosmic structure evolution and for some crucial physical parameters, as the
neutrino mass. Finally, we present three different kinds of scientific
perspectives for fundamental physics and cosmology offered by the analysis of
on-going and future cosmic microwave background projects at different angular
scales dedicated to anisotropies in total intensity and polarization and to
absolute temperature.
