- | Following the model used in CMB-S4, we will define Data Challenge X.Y as the application of Mission Model X to Sky Model Y. We anticipate the first iteration (DC_0.0) to be available in mid-July. This will primarily be a test case for the construction and analysis processes, with more detailed and representative models to follow. | + | Following the model used in CMB-S4, we will define Data Challenge X.Y as the application of Mission Model X to Sky Model Y. |
