BK-style processing of DC1 maps to spectra

— J. Willmert, C. Bischoff

Return to CMB-S4 Logbook Wiki


The power spectra presented here are analyzed from the input HEALPix maps using the S2HAT and PS2HAT libraries (see also arXiv:0903.2350). Custom MATLAB mex bindings interface to the (P)S2HAT library and permit us to finishing processing using the MATLAB pipeline used for standard BICEP/Keck analysis (i.e. our FFT steps are replaced with (P)S2HAT, but debiasing, suppression factor correction, etc follow the same code path as used in BK analysis; see for example arXiv:1403.3985 and arXiv:1603.05976 for more details on the BK pipeline).

Note: Remember that bandpower is a variance. Hence bandpower error bar is the std of a variance. This means noise and sample fluctuation components straight add, no quadrature — i.e. the difference between blue and red is the signal fluctatution component.
