Optimizing spectral-matching component separation for measuring CMB B-mode polarization with a satellite mission
The measurement of primordial CMB B-mode polarization is fundamentally limited by our ability to separate this faint signal from bright and complex Galactic foregrounds. Spectral Matching Independent Component Analysis (SMICA) offers a flexible, semi-blind approach to this foreground-cleaning problem. However, its stan...
