LBNL-2020: Galactic Foreground Modeling
From CMB-S4 wiki
Charge
- Presentation / discussion of new developments in simulation techniques, codes, since the last meeting.
- Identify the other working groups with science cases relying on Galactic foreground modeling (low-ell / BB, extragalactic foregrounds, etc)
- What are the conclusions of the previous data challenges for these groups, in what direction does the foreground modeling require more complexity.
- Are we prepared to provide the simulations that will be required to answer outstanding science questions for CD1.
- What trade off studies are being looked at, will these require new foreground modeling efforts?
- Are existing simulations sufficient for the next data challenge?
