Abstract
I
will review the motivation behind the calculation of the CMB angular
power spectra, how it should be done, and how it is actually feasible.
Using the Planck experience I will then show some of the problems
affecting the high signal to noise regime expected in future
experiments, such as the residual noises and foregrounds, the
instrument and analysis related systematics effects, and the required
consistency tests. |
