====== Telecon Notes Sept. 5, 2018  ======

Attendance:  \\

Notes by: Shaul \\

=== Agenda ===
  * Review of {{:private:picoreport.pdf|Draft Report}} and next steps
    * {{https://zzz.physics.umn.edu/ipsig/private/teleconsnotes20180822|Review action items from last week}}
    * Report schedule  [[https://zzz.physics.umn.edu/ipsig/start|is here]]
    * [[https://github.com/CMB-Probe/PICOReport|GitHub repo for Report (for push access, send GitHub user name to Shaul; everyone can pull)]]
  * S4 Meeting Complementarity with balloons and space
    * Chart the space landscape: Active - LiteBIRD, PICO, Bharat; Inactive - PIXIE, CORE
    * Review the essence of LiteBIRD and PICO and their science goals
    * Review the key overlap/complementarity between space + ground: large angular scales (tau, r), frequency bands (component separation). In \ell space: 'Lensing' and delensing is the overlap area. (Note: the lensing signal may be affected by foregrounds - not clear at which resolution one needs the full frequency coverage.)
      * are there specific examples for how space/ground are complementary? 

=== Notes ===

  * Discussing status of report
    * **Dan will contribute 2.1 by next week**. 
    * Should we include 'feedback' in the STM? SH will discuss with Colin+Nick at the S4 meeting
    * If we exclude from STM, we will still include in text. Need text and forecasts. 
    * Colin estimates 2 weeks for text, 2-4 weeks for detailed forecasts
    * Lensing - contact Alex Van Engelen
    * Discussion between Jacques and Marcel about running forecasts for PICO. Need to follow up. 
  * Discussion about Complementarity talk
    * SH wants to give examples of complementarity, not concentrate on space "is better". 
    * Dan points out that 'sky coverage' is not just an issue of low \ell. It is also an issue of mode counting. 
    * PICO can clean foregrounds for delensing, and for sz science. 
    * Colin will make a slide for Shaul.
