      * There are two effects: 1. Calibration will correct any "constant" effect. so how accurately do we need to calibrate? 2.  to what effect I/Q/U beams maps are the same.       * There are two effects: 1.

      * Can we find a main lobe GRASP simulation for PICO that we can look at?  Eric can determine whether the cross-polar response can be corrected by a simple calibration factor.  If it's a simple rotation, then no problem.  But if there are extra terms, then we might need to have a different approach.      * Can we find a main lobe GRASP simulation for PICO that we can look at?  Eric can determine whether the cross-polar response can be corrected by a simple calibration factor.  If it's a simple rotation, then no problem.  But if there are extra terms, then we might need to have a different approach.
 +     * action to Eric: to describe this in more detail next week (building on his previous post).
 +     * action to Shaul: talk to Karl to look at main beam GRASP sim for two orthogonal detectors.
 +     * Maurizio worked with Andrea.  Andrea using PICO as a test case for some "large focal plane" development for toast.
 +     * Maps are available for 2 year simulation requested by Kris: /scratch1/scratchdirs/tomasi/PICO_simulations/pico_4detectors_2yrs.fits input map is /global/cscratch1/sd/zonca/pico/cal_sims/pico_cmb_nodip.fits
 +     * Andrea was able to patch toast to bring in dacapo input. Allows gain estimation sims: 1. a map of the full sky reconstructed over 2 years and 4 detectors, 2. gain factors vs. time, and 3. a map that has the effects of residual gain errors.
 +     * Maurizio can use these products to compute angular power spectra and show the science impact of the residual gain errors.  He will do this in the next few days.
   * Systematics section outline   * Systematics section outline
 +     * Shaul wants to have a draft PICO report by September 1.  The real one will be submitted to NASA in December
 +     * Write a systematics paper? Is there anything particularly new in the PICO material?
 +       * ideas for Maurizio's scheme was somewhat explained in the CORE systematics paper.  Some new elements regarding the end-to-end. 
 +       * Eric's particular work is mostly a specific application of previous methods. 
 +       * PICO has a different scanning strategy from Litebird and CORE.
 +       * Sidelobe pickup given the telescope is interesting: this is one that has never been used for a CMB project. 
 +       * Brendan to make an outline for paper.
 +     * Note: Brendan to be on vacation for 2 weeks. will be back for July 9 telecon.  
 +     * Eric will be gone Late July - early August.
