In Aumont slide 9 C_l^BB=0.1 uK^2 @ 350GHz, ell=100 and 70% sky. For 30% of
sky the value is factor 10 lower.
Reading off slide 12 @ 350x353 I get the same numerical value for 70% sky -
which is odd as the y-axis label now says C_l/2pi. So I think one of the axis
labels may be incorrect. Based on the r=0.1 curve I think it is this plot
which is wrong.
So if we take the 143x143 curve and scale it down by factor 10 based on slide
9 we have dust BB kissing the r=0.1 line for 30% sky. This doesn't seem too
good for us.
Of course these plots all have some component separation in effect - a model
of the CMB has been subtracted as it says in slide 4. But for BB this model
presumably does very little - we see sensible black body behavior of the
inferred dust spectrum all the way down to 143GHz in the lower right panel of
slide 12.
