Joint Plenary for Forecasting/Reference Design
From CMB-S4 wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchNotes
Questions:
- What plans for instrument systematics modeling on the decadal timescale and beyond? What instrument parameters values should we use, guided by simulations & experience?
- Complementary performance-based and ab initio forecasting
- Write down specs for eg. bandwidth, NET, etc, justified by demonstrated performance
- Need single reference document for all of these (wiki page?)
- Cascade diagram progressively decomposing each element
- For many boxes there are uncontroversial numbers that can be used as the starting point
- On which parameters do we need to do better than S3 to achieve our goals?
- Complementary performance-based and ab initio forecasting
