 Most of the foreground models we are considering for PICO implement spatial variation of the spectral behavior at some level - this produces "decorrelation" - i.e. the sky pattern for a given foreground component changes as a function of frequency. Most of the foreground models we are considering for PICO implement spatial variation of the spectral behavior at some level - this produces "decorrelation" - i.e. the sky pattern for a given foreground component changes as a function of frequency.

 +To recap the models are:
 +
 +  * 00=Toy Gaussian models for dust and sync with uniform amplitude over the sky at level appropriate for the BICEP/Keck patch (i.e. way too low for PICO large sky coverage).
 +  * 91=PySM a1d1f1s1 [[https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.02841 | arxiv/1608.02841]]
 +  * 92=PySM a2d4f1s3
 +  * 93=PySM a2d7f1s3
 +  * 96=Brandon's MHD model for dust and sync taken from /global/homes/b/bhensley/mhd_maps/maps_v1 on 180424
 +  * 98=MKD multilayer dust model as described in [[https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.04162.pdf | arxiv/1706.04162]]. Since only dust is provided this is added to PySM a2f1s3 as per models 92 and 93.
 +  * 99=Vansyngel model as described in [[https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.02577 | arxiv/1611.02577]] with multi-frequency extension. This model provides both dust and sync (and no AME or free-free is added.)
 +
 +So we have 7 models for dust and 5 for sync.
