Will PCAT be managing this in real time (or is PCAT handed a reconciled cost)? | * For a given Probe, is there a reconciliation process between the TeamX cost and the CEPS cost?

| + | Cover Art - Volunteer(s)? | ||
| + | * need a shepherd/ | ||
| + | * AT: images are common in proposals. CMB is rather boring. | ||
| + | * CL: could have history of universe or galaxies or clusters or nuetrinos or ... w/CMB background. | ||
| + | * SH: could tell artist that in words, and iterate. | ||
| + | * **Charles will talk to artist, Amy will coordinate meeting.** | ||
| + | | ||
| + | Policy for report Authors/ | ||
| + | * Lots of people writing/ | ||
| + | * CL: Long list of 2 groups. 1 group is authors, 2nd group is everyone. Is 2 alphabetized subsets. No labels separating the 2 lists. | ||
| + | * SH: for science white papers we've suggested 2 lists. didn't get into typographic details. **SH Will check with Lloyd and ???** | ||
| + | |||
| + | Final TeamX - 2nd week of October | ||
| + | * cleanup and wrap. Polish a final set of slides that goes to cost checking mechanism. | ||
| + | * final inputs are in prep, may need small inputs from various people. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Status of report {{: | ||
| + | * Proposed Schedule (Shaul) | ||
| + | * Submit 12/31/2018 = effectively Friday 12/21 (avoiding Christmas) | ||
| + | * 4 weeks to implement external review comments + final polish = 11/21 (11/21-26 - Thanksgiving) | ||
| + | * Nov. 1: submit to external reviews; receive back between 11/9 and 11/19 | ||
| + | * Nov. 1 version: essentially final text; essentially final forecasts; essentially final Figures | ||
| + | * 1 month left to finalize, a version that is ready for decadal panel | ||
| + | * **SH will email all the final schedule. communicate deadline** | ||
| + | * CL: agree with schedule, really no other option. | ||
| + | * Status of past action items: | ||
| + | * Intro, | ||
| + | * RF adding text. DG: talked with RF early this week. He is aware and supposed to be wrapping this. **Will talk face to face Friday.** | ||
| + | * NB planning to look at / add to intro. NB: haven' | ||
| + | * 2.2.1. | ||
| + | * Neutrino mass, SH/DG: nothing critical needed here any more. | ||
| + | * SH will follow up on delensing with RF. If coordination between sections is needed. | ||
| + | * Cosmic structure, | ||
| + | * figure by NB. Done. | ||
| + | * Question about noise with CBE vs requirements getting cosmic variance on tau. SH: Checked with Stephen. we are fine in all cases. | ||
| + | * NB: Want to think about this a bit more. Will look at Stephen' | ||
| + | * Marcel and Alex are coordinating on correlations. No update (not online) | ||
| + | * Galaxy formation and SZ needs some text and coordinations with intro. | ||
| + | * Galactic science | ||
| + | * Not online, but SH is up to date: Their telecon to shrink to 3 pages was yesterday. Telecon on STM friday. | ||
| + | * Complementarity table. CL formatting | ||
| + | * CL: Can cut by factor of 2. **Will do on Friday** | ||
| + | * Foreground / Signal seperation | ||
| + | * More progress was reported on in telecon. Work is picking up steam. | ||
| + | * SH: likely this text editing will stretch long. | ||
| + | * CL: talked to englen (?) and Hans Christian. | ||
| + | * Systematics | ||
| + | * Brendan is emerging from SphereX and will be back. | ||
| + | * **SH/AT coordinate possible PICO support** of Brendan for 2019, as work is still needed. | ||
| + | * Measurement requirements | ||
| + | * **SH still committing changes** responding to AT's comments. | ||
| + | * Still below 2 page limit | ||
| + | * Tim Pearson is helping with editorial review and formatting. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Revised cost estimate process for all the Probes | ||
| + | * **Need comments on process to NASA by Friday** | ||
| + | * Old process: | ||
| + | * TeamX helps design and provides cost est. Then this forwarded to Science Office of Mission Assessment who do independent estimate. These go to decadal. | ||
| + | * Science Office step cancelled. Because probes not designed to the same standard as other missions costed by SOMA | ||
| + | * PCAT being created, | ||
| + | * Some questions already been asked. | ||
| + | * CL: some general comments. | ||
| + | * SH: reconciling after costing? | ||
| + | * CL: Hope/expect that teams will be involved in that reconciliation. | ||
| + | * SH: charter has significant detail about PCAT structure. but little information about the work done and inputs to the JPL and Goddard teams (CEPS, RAO) is lacking. | ||
