Abstract: (arXiv)
The detection of primordial polarization modes of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) requires exquisite control of Galactic foreground contamination. The Needlet Internal Linear Combination (NILC) method has proven effective in reconstructing CMB modes without suffering from mis-modeling errors of Galactic emission. However, with the most complex foreground models, residual Galactic contamination from NILC is proved to bias, especially at large angular scales, the recovered CMB modes from simulated data of future CMB experiments. We therefore present two new extensions of NILC, Multi-Clustering NILC (MC-NILC) and optimized constrained Moment ILC (ocMILC), which allow to enhance foreground subtraction in the reconstructed CMB signal.Note:
