+ Components:
CMB (Planck 2015 cosmology), with lensing
SZ: thermal, kinetic, and relativistic corrections up to 4th order,
includes IR contamination of SZ by sources
CIB: spirals, spheroids, starbursts, with matter shells
Galactic thermal dust: two modified blackbodies
Galactic synchrotron: template at 408 MHz from Remazeilles et al 2015, curved power-law with index from Miville-Deschenes et al 2008, and flattening curvature of C=0.3
Galactic free-free: power-law from Miville-Deschenes et al 2008
Galactic spinning dust (AME) from Draine & Lazarian 1998
IR and radio compact sources
