摘要： BINGO will observe hydrogen distribution by means of the 21 cm line signal by drift-scan mapping through a tomographic analysis called \emph{Intensity Mapping} (IM) between 980 and 1260 MHz which aims at analyzing Dark Energy using \emph{Baryon Acoustic Oscillations}. In the same frequency range, there are several other unwanted signals as well as instrumental noise, contaminating the target signal. There are many component separation methods to reconstruct signals. Here, we used just three blind methods (FastICA, GNILC and GMCA), which explore different ways to estimate foregrounds' contribution from observed signals from the sky. Subsequently, we estimate 21 cm signal from its mixing with noise. We also analyzed how different number of simulations affect the quality of the estimation, as well as the effect of the binning on angular power spectrum to estimate 21 cm from the mixing with noise. For the BINGO sky range and sensitivity and the foreground model considered in the current simulation, we find that the effective dimension of the foreground subspace leading to best results is equal to three, composed of non-physical templates. At this moment of the pipeline configuration, using 50 or 400 simulations is statistically equivalent. It is also possible to reduce the number of multipoles by half to speed up the process and maintain the quality of results. All three algorithms used to perform foreground removal yielded statistically equivalent results for estimating the 21cm signal when we assume 400 realizations and GMCA and FastICA's mixing matrix dimensions equal to three. However, concerning computational cost in this stage of the BINGO pipeline, FastICA is faster than other algorithms. A new comparison will be necessary when the time-ordered-data and map-making are available.

摘要： AliCPT is the first Chinese cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment which will make the most precise measurements of the CMB polarization in the northern hemisphere. The key science goal for AliCPT is the detection of primordial gravitational waves (PGWs). It is well known that an epoch of cosmic inflation, in the very early universe, can produce PGWs, which leave an imprint on the CMB in form of odd parity $B$-mode polarization. In this work, we study the performance of the component separation and parameter estimation pipelines in context of constraining the value of the tensor-to-scalar ratio. Based on the simulated data for one observation season, we compare five different pipelines with different working principles. Three pipelines perform component separation at map or spectra level before estimating $r$ from the cleaned spectra, while the other two pipelines performs a global fit for both foreground parameters and $r$. We also test different methods to account for the effects of time stream filtering systematics. This work shows that our pipelines provide consistent and robust constraints on the tensor-to-scalar ratio and a consistent sensitivity $\sigma(r) \sim 0.02$. This showcases the potential of precise $B$-mode polarization measurement with AliCPT-1. AliCPT will provide a powerful opportunity to detect PGWs, which is complementary with various ground-based CMB experiments in the southern hemisphere.

摘要： Residual foreground contamination by thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect from galaxy clusters in cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps propagates into the reconstructed CMB lensing field, and thus biases the intrinsic cross-correlation between CMB lensing and large-scale structure (LSS). Through stacking analysis, we show that residual tSZ contamination causes an increment of lensing convergence in the central part of the clusters and a decrement of lensing convergence in the cluster outskirts. We quantify the impact of residual tSZ contamination on cross-correlations between the Planck 2018 CMB lensing convergence maps and the SDSS-IV galaxy density data through cross-power spectrum computation. In contrast with the Planck 2018 tSZ-deprojected SMICA lensing map, our analysis using the tSZ-contaminated SMICA lensing map measures a $\sim2.5\%$ negative bias at multipoles $\ell\lesssim 500$ and transits to a $\sim9\%$ positive bias at $\ell\gtrsim1500$, which validates earlier theoretical predictions of the overall shape of such tSZ-induced spurious cross-correlation. The tSZ-induced lensing convergence field in Planck CMB data is detected with more than $1\sigma$ significance at $\ell\lesssim 500$ and more than $14\sigma$ significance at $\ell\gtrsim1500$, yielding an overall $14.8\sigma$ detection. We also show that masking galaxy clusters in CMB data is not sufficient to eliminate the spurious lensing signal, still detecting a non-negligible bias with $5.5\sigma$ significance on cross-correlations with galaxy density fields. Our results emphasize how essential it is to deproject the tSZ effect from CMB maps at the component separation stage and adopt tSZ-free CMB lensing maps for cross-correlations with LSS data.

摘要： Cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) observations are unavoidably contaminated by emission from various extra-galactic foregrounds, which must be removed to obtain reliable measurements of the cosmological signal. In this paper, we demonstrate CMB lensing reconstruction in AliCPT-1 after foreground removal, combine the two bands of AliCPT-1 (90 and 150~GHz) with Planck HFI bands (100, 143, 217 and 353~GHz) and with the WMAP-K band (23~GHz). In order to balance contamination by instrumental noise and foreground residual bias, we adopt the Needlet Internal Linear Combination (NILC) method to clean the E-map and the constrained Internal Linear Combination (cILC) method to clean the B-map. The latter utilizes additional constraints on average frequency scaling of the dust and synchrotron to remove foregrounds at the expense of somewhat noisier maps. Assuming 4 modules observing 1 season from simulation data, the resulting effective residual noise in E- and B-map are roughly $15~\mu{\rm K}\cdot{\rm arcmin}$ and $25~\mu{\rm K}\cdot{\rm arcmin}$, respectively. As a result, the CMB lensing reconstruction signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from polarization data is about SNR$\,\approx\,$4.5. This lensing reconstruction capability is comparable to that of other stage-III small aperture millimeter CMB telescopes.
