From BEYONDPLANCK to COSMOGLOBE: Preliminary WMAP Q -band analysis

We present the first application of the COSMOGLOBE analysis framework by analyzing nine-year WMAP time-ordered observations that uses similar machinery to that of BEYONDPLANCK for the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI). We analyzed only the Q-band (41 GHz) data and report on the low-level analysis process based on uncalibrated time-ordered data to calibrated maps. Most of the existing BEYONDPLANCK pipeline may be reused for WMAP analysis with minimal changes to the existing codebase. The main modification is the implementation of the same preconditioned biconjugate gradient mapmaker used by the WMAP team. Producing a single WMAP Q1-band sample requires 22 CPU-hrs, which is slightly more than the cost of a Planck 44 GHz sample of 17 CPU-hrs; this demonstrates that a full end-to-end Bayesian processing of the WMAP data is computationally feasible. In general, our recovered maps are very similar to the maps released by the WMAP team, although with two notable differences. In terms of temperature, we find a ~2 μK quadrupole difference that most likely is caused by different gain modeling, while in polarization we find a distinct 2.5 μK signal that has been previously referred to as poorly measured modes by the WMAP team. In the COSMOGLOBE processing, this pattern arises from temperature-to-polarization leakage from the coupling between the CMB Solar dipole, transmission imbalance, and sidelobes. No traces of this pattern are found in either the frequency map or TOD residual map, suggesting that the current processing has succeeded in modeling these poorly measured modes within the assumed parametric model by using Planck information to break the sky-synchronous degeneracies inherent in the WMAP scanning strategy.

New Features in the SPOC Pipeline Release 4.0

The Science Processing Operations Center is in the process of testing and deploying Release 4.0 of the codebase in the March 2019 timeframe. This paper describes the new features of the software and their likely impact on the quality of the TESS science data products. The major goals of Release 4.0 are to improve the extraction of photometry from the pixels in light of the non-uniform pointing performance and the identification of instrumental signatures from the light curves. We also describe modifications to the FFI pipeline to allow the generation of FFI light curves, correction of the instrumental systematics therein, and planet searches, primarily for the purpose of validating the 2-min pipeline against the FFI pipeline, but also to be able to provide cotrending basis vectors (CBVs) derived directly from the FFIs to the public to aid them in their extraction and correction of photometry. We also discuss the improvements in photometric performance of the pipeline and its various components.The lapse in funding experienced between 22 December 2018 and 27 January 2019 significantly delayed our ability to conduct integration testing as planned for late December/early January, delaying the start of V&V by one month to the end of February 2019.The TESS Mission is funded by NASA's Science Mission Directorate as an Astrophysics Explorer Mission.The Science Processing Operations Center is in the process of testing and deplo!"ing Release 4.0 of thecodebase In the March 2019 tlmeframe.
