Archeops is a balloon borne CMB experiment.1 It was built by an international collaboration, led by A. Benoit (CRTBT, CNRS, Grenoble, France), with several groups from France, Italy, the UK, USA and Russia. Its goals were twofold. On the physics point of view, it was aimed at the measurement of large scale (ℓ ~ 20 - 200) CMB temperature anisotropies in a region were the pre-WMAP data exhibited a gap. The study of the polarisation of the galactic emission was another important target, since it may constitute an important foreground for the measurement of the CMB polarisation anisotropies precision measurements that are being planned. In parallel with these physics objectives, Archeops was also set up as a test bench for concepts and detectors for the Planck HFI instrument. In this proceeding, I give a brief summary of the CMB power spectrum analysis and of the galactic emission polarisation measurement by Archeops.
