r: Lloyd Knox
- From Science Book, expect two distinct surveys for r: one at low resolution with many frequencies (for tensors), one with high resolution but fewer frequencies (for delensing)
- Defined a staged series of data challenges. Simulated maps exist at NERSC, analysis of first data challenge is underway. Start simple, update survey and signals in later rounds.
- Science Book used Fisher forecast to allocate sensitivity between eight frequency bands for low-res survey plus high-res survey.
- Important question: Do we need additional frequencies below 30 GHz?
- Survey definitions:
- X=1: Science Book case with fsky=3% (check codes to confirm that we can reproduce Science Book results)
- X=2: Updated set of bandpasses, multiple values of fsky.
- X=3: Include both low-res and high-res surveys
- Signal definitions:
- Y=0: Lensed and partially-delensed CMB, Gaussian dust and synchrotron, no extragalactic foregrounds
- Y=1: PySM 'standard' model = Galactic foregrounds (non-Gaussian, spatially varying indices for sync/dust), no extragalactic foregrounds
- Y=2: PySM 'alternate' model
- Y>2: Ben Thorne and Brandon Hensley working to add Hensley / Drain dust model, add extragalactic foregrounds consistent with CMB lensing (Alvarez/Battaglia/Bond)
