==== Agenda ==== * Discuss which systematics to simulate and parametrization * How to assess validity of 1/f noise values? * [[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yVAmQFK-bjenhiRa_EeJqsB29-EiPNk2-JQBh2TSXvo/edit?usp=sharing | Google Doc with parameters]] ==== Minutes ==== * Actions: Andrea implementing c) i) for PICO. After that we can decide if need gain variation. * Brendan: Ask thermal engineer at JPL to get estimates on thermal variations in the intrument? Is there also possibility of estimating polarized emission and IP from the optics? * Action Item [Joy]: how are the maps with systematics going to be evaluated? * Shaul first wants effect to be evaluated on only CMB + noise, no lensing or foregrounds. * Josquin could take in maps with systematics and run them through pipeline including foreground separation and estimate sigma_r * Action Item [Graca]: email Lloyd to ask about data challenge pipeline * Action Item [Brendan]: What is the scope of Brad’s work with GRASP? * Action Item [Joy]: Talk to Shaul and get readout / detector noise estimates for PICO * Shaul agrees readout noise shouldn't dominate * Brendan's email exchange with Roger seems enough to use 10 mHz estimate for f_knee * Action Item [Brendan]: Get estimate on polarization angle calibration from Planck
