• Ragnhild+Clem
• Kris
• Mathieu

=== Notes (Shaul) ===

• SH shows noise spectra from Reijo. SH: Needs to find noise parameters and provide to MR and Commander. But this is not presently on the critical path.
• Ragnhild explains the variants of Commander:
  • Commander 1: all frequencies have the same beam size
  • Commander 2: each band can have its own beam size
  • Commander 3: starts from TOD simulations and builds maps + accounts for foregrounds
• MR: NILC results are driven by foreground separation not noise. MR does not expect changes in the NILC results due to the 'real' noise. Currently resolution of results are at 1 deg. Don't expect results to depend on resolution.
• LB is working on extending the frequency coverage to higher frequencies
• Models to use: 90.91=d1s1, 90.92=d7s3 (this is expected to be a challenge for parametric models), MKD.
