====== Telecon Notes, March 16, 2018 ======

Attendance: Brandon, Daniel, Lloyd, Enrique, Belen, Charles, + ...

Proposed Agenda:

  * Follow up on items from last week
 
=== Notes ===
 
  * Shaul gives an update from Julian: maps for pico have not been made yet. Julian contacted Josquin (SMICA) and Carlo (NILC) and waiting to hear back. **Action for Julian: to get the maps made.** 
  * Belen asks whether the high resolution maps will be available, not only nside=16. Agreement that they should be available. Also agreeing that it is useful to run the SEVEM analysis on both the nside=16 maps and higher resolution nside=128, to compare with Matthieu, and to check the results for higher resolution, respectively. 
  * Some discussion around Matthieu's results from last week that the 21, 25 GHz bands turned out to not provide extra constraining power on r. The highest two PICO frequencies did.
    * Agreement all around that this is not yet an indication that we should remove the low frequency bands.
    * Agreement that this result may depend on the input model
    * Enrique points out that Mattieu's analysis goes to \ell=50. Perhaps if we include information up to \ell=200, the value of the higher frequency bands would degrade. 
    * Shaul reports on Clem's suggestion from last week that Matthieu will re-run with fixed dust temperature, not varying across the sky. 
  * Shaul suggests that since Belen is set to run on PSM, she would repeat Matthieu's analysis to get a cross check of the results with a different code and the ability to go to higher \ells. **Belen says she can do that. She will get in touch with Matthieu.**
