+ | * Amy: what to save money: shrinking the operation, scaling down requires less mechanical reduces cost; | ||
+ | * one thing that’s is simple would be to slow the spin speed, it would reduce the requirement on motor, makes it easier to point reconstruction, | ||
+ | * Kris: what is the range to reduce? | ||
+ | * Amy: now 1rpm, if half rpm, don’t know how much can save | ||
+ | * Shaul: from science point of view, the impact is on noise, more 1/f, not easy to quantify; that is something has to be assessed by simulation | ||
+ | * Shaul: all of the small scale science should be fine, the only science affected could be largest angular scale and B modes; we can simply say "the effect on the largest angular scale will be accessed" | ||
+ | * Amy: for baseline, it was 950 M, under 1B cap. Last decade, EPIC review increased 20-30%; showing some descopes is safer | ||
