1.  Surveys reuslts bias test :

1.1  LiB :

  • Residual computed from R = (\hat C_\ell - C_\ell^{th}) / std(\hat C_\ell) \cdot \sqrt{n_{MC}} = (\hat C_\ell - C_\ell^{th}) / std(\langle \hat C_\ell \rangle )
LiBBICEP
  • with naked eye, we already see that LiB seems unbiased, while Bicep is biais mainly for the EE spectrum.

1.2  Biais ?

  • Computing the number of point at 1, 2 or 3 sigma, that is to say (|R|< \sigma)/n_{bins} with \sigma = 1, 2, 3 : expecting the 68-95-99.7 rule.
  • 100000 simulations

  • conclusion : bias found fo EE. This si due to the theoretical binned spectrum approximation C_b = P_{b \ell} \cdot C_\ell and the fact that the EE spectrum is not flat enought.
  • conclusion : less bias found fo BB. This si due to the theoretical binned spectrum approximation C_b = P_{b \ell} \cdot C_\ell , but the BB spectrum is sufficiently flat.

  • first and last modes have to be neglected when computing a likelihood on 'r'.

2.  NaMaster dependence over r :

  • namaster behaves badly when r-> 0 :
  • Blue : ns=8
  • Green : ns=16
  • Red : ns=32
  • dashed black : BB model
  • y-label is wrong, it should be C_\ell
r=0.1r=0.01r=0.001r=0.0
 
input EE = TE = 0
  • problem solved : mask aposisation incorrect.

3.  Pure Tests :

  • LiB, _Ns16, Nbins46, Slmax=3, fwhmdeg0.5, r0.001, fsky0.7
  • Color solid lines are the error of the spectrum std(Cl)
  • Dashed black line is the spectrum model
