Hi Sarah,
In your post it says:
> type8=type7+0.2*type4
That's not right is it - the power spectrum scales with r but the map scales
as sqrt(r) - so for r=0.02 you want type7+0.4472*type4 don't you?

Hi everyone,
I have a posting with some thoughts about what it means to fail the
spectral jack:
http://bicep0.caltech.edu/~spuder/analysis_logbook/analysis/20131016_spectr…
I find that adding BB power in the signal+noise sims somewhat reduces
the significance of the BICEP2/Keck and BICEP2/rx1 spectral jack
failures. In order to increase the error bars enough to formally pass
the jack, the BB power would have to be much larger than r=0.1.
We should also think about whether there are known systematics that can
cause a failure of this jack, and in particular whether there are
systematics that can cause the spectral jack to fail without
necessarily implying that the bottom line for r is untrustworthy.

Hi Walt,
It looks to me that this would also be an excellent way to probe for
consistency of the pairmaps going into the CMB coadds. Is that right?
