论文摘要
降压测量法是一种具有执行光谱成像的能力的新技术。辐射学干涉仪在宽频段中观察天空,并可以在物理带中的几个子带中重建天空图,以在数据后处理。这提供了一种强大的光谱方法,可以区分宇宙微波背景(CMB)和天体物理前景。在本文中,该方法用基于Q \&U骨渗透压仪(QUBIC)的示例进行了说明,该干涉仪(QUBIC)是一种基于地面仪器,旨在测量在毫米波长下天空的B模式极化。我们考虑点源重建和银河灰尘映射的特定情况,我们将点扩散功能表征为频率的函数。我们使用端到端模拟以及快速噪声模拟器研究光谱成像的噪声特性,尤其是子兰之间的相关性。我们得出的结论表明,在Qubic的情况下,光谱成像性能几乎是最佳的五个子带。
Bolometric interferometry is a novel technique that has the ability to perform spectral imaging. A bolometric interferometer observes the sky in a wide frequency band and can reconstruct sky maps in several sub-bands within the physical band in post-processing of the data. This provides a powerful spectral method to discriminate between the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and astrophysical foregrounds. In this paper, the methodology is illustrated with examples based on the Q \& U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology (QUBIC) which is a ground-based instrument designed to measure the B-mode polarization of the sky at millimeter wavelengths. We consider the specific cases of point source reconstruction and Galactic dust mapping and we characterize the point spread function as a function of frequency. We study the noise properties of spectral imaging, especially the correlations between sub-bands, using end-to-end simulations together with a fast noise simulator. We conclude showing that spectral imaging performance are nearly optimal up to five sub-bands in the case of QUBIC.
