__Sept. 27 2017__ 

Attendees: Alex, Jean-Baptiste, Mat M, Max, Jim, Jacques, Colin

Agenda + Minutes:

** Component separation (Colin and Max)**

Pipeline is very transferable to Probe simulations, applicable to straight S/N estimates, tSZ, kSZ, lensing, etc.

** Update on the CORE sims with CMB probe bands (Jacques)**

  * Mathieu Remazeilles ran new simulations with an updated Planck Sky Model
  * Temperature only, ell_max = 6000, Nside = 4096. 20 redshift bins. Clusters at M > 5e13
  * They contain, SZ, rSZ, Radio, IR contamination (independent of CIB density field), CIB, CMB, galactic foregrounds.
  * Now observing with CMB probe bands

Still needs to be validate SZ-CIB correlation, the lensing-CIB has been validated.

__Where will these simulations be placed?__

They will be posted on a site hosted by Manchester (Mathieu or Jacques please post link), please copy whole directory.

**Angular resolution discussion (Nick)**

Simulations will be paramount here. The need for higher res is obvious for extragalactic point source and CIB science. For clusters and galaxy formation questions, high res will help with dust contamination, but we need to check this.

Tabling Argonne Sim discussion for the next call
