I posted draft slides for my June 10 talk at CMB2013 (Okinawa) at
http://bmode.caltech.edu/~spuder/talks/CMB_2013_06_buder.pdf
The talk time is 35 minutes.
Suggestions are appreciated, and I have some special requests for comment:
Slide 2: I haven't decided whether to use this slide yet. I want something
to underscore the importance of inflation B-mode experiments after Planck,
but this may be too controversial. What do you think?
Slide 6: Did I leave anyone out?
Slide 19: I got this map from Angiola's recent posting
http://bmode.caltech.edu/~spuder/analysis_logbook/analysis/20130517_new_3yr…
I think the map-making is mature enough to show, but this is a map we
haven't shown in public before. If we don't feel ready to show it, I don't
mind reverting to a previous analysis that has been shown before.
For BICEP2 and Keck map noise I am using Clem's map depth/weighting scheme [

]
Slide 20: Are we ready to show a BICEP2 jackknife spectrum? I'd like to,
especially to show the error bars compared to r=0.1.
Slide 21: Do we have a recent posting showing how much improvement we get
from the pureB estimator? The plot I have now is for Keck from a recent
posting by Sarah. The most recent BICEP2 posting I could find was from
early 2012 for the 0304 simset.
Slide 22: The plots are from Jamie Tolan's presentation at the
collaboration meeting. I don't think they've been shown in public before,
but I think we're ready to show them as a demonstration of the matrix-based
analysis we're working toward. Jamie especially, do you agree?
Slide 24: I'd prefer to show a far-field A-B difference map here, but I
can't find one that's public. From the main beams final report, I think
http://bicep0.caltech.edu/~spuder/analysis_logbook/analysis/20121115_therm_…
the archival beam maps. Are we okay if I pick a map from there as an
example to show?
Slide 29: I'd like to include something about the Keck sidelobes since it's
something I've been working on, but I realize it's new and we don't have a
guaranteed solution although there's good evidence for believing the new
baffles will work.
