Agenda

Notes

- First presentation shows the spectrometer would fit in terms of volume

- would spectrometer be any smaller/simpler if it just did absolute spectrum science?

- yes it would have one barrel, but would lose polarized foreground cross-comparison

- spectrometer working group has also been looking at smaller mirrors

- guaranteed detection of y. Outside of that, constraints on non slow-roll inflation.

- can we quantify what models of inflation we would rule out?

- unfortunately the note taker had to promptly leave at 4 PM.
