Noise power spectrum estimation and fast map making for CMB experiments
We present a method designed to estimate the noise power spectrum in the time domain for CMB experiments. The noise power spectrum is extracted from the time ordered data avoiding the contamination coming from sky signal and accounting the pixellisation of the signal and the projection of the noise when making intermediate sky projections. This method is simple to implement and relies on Monte-...
متن کاملTHE COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND CMB map-making and power spectrum estimation
CMB data analysis is in general done through two main steps : map-making of the time data streams and power spectrum extraction from the maps. The latter basically consists in the separation between the variance of the CMB and that of the noise in the map. Noise must therefore be deeply understood so that the estimation of CMB variance (the power spectrum) is unbiased. I present in this article...
متن کاملCMB Broad-Band Power Spectrum Estimation
The natural outcome of theoretical calculations of microwave background anisotropy is the angular power spectrum Cl as a function of multipole number l. Experimental Cl’s are needed for direct comparison. Estimation procedures using statistics linear in the pixel amplitudes as well as the conventional but less useful quadratic combinations are described. For most current experiments, a single b...
متن کاملMaking waves on CMB power spectrum and inflaton dynamics
We discuss cosmic microwave background anisotropies in models with an unconventional primordial power spectrum. In particular, we consider an initial power spectrum with some “spiky” corrections. Interestingly, such a primordial power spectrum generates “wavy” structure in the CMB angular power spectrum. Some possible models generating such a primordial power spectrum from inflaton dynamics are...
متن کاملJoint Bayesian Component Separation and Cmb Power Spectrum Estimation
We describe and implement an exact, flexible, and computationally efficient algorithm for joint component separation and CMB power spectrum estimation, building on a Gibbs sampling framework. Two essential new features are (1) conditional sampling of foreground spectral parameters and (2) joint sampling of all amplitude-type degrees of freedom (e.g., CMB, foreground pixel amplitudes, and global...
