Cross-ILC methods paper

Paper:

  • Raghunathan & Omori 2023; arXiv:2304.09166; Submitted to ApJ.

Overview:

  • Cross-ILC technique:
    • For kSZ: Compute cross-spectrum between tSZ-free and CIB-free ILC maps to measure the kSZ power spectrum.
    • For CMB lensing: Pass tSZ-free and CIB-free ILC maps in the two legs of lensing quadratic estimator to mitigate both tSZ and CIB-induced lensing biases.

  • For Fisher bias calculations:
    • CAMB.
