Spin-SILC: CMB polarization component separation with spin wavelets
We present Spin-SILC, a new foreground component separation method that accurately extracts the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarisation $E$ and $B$ modes from raw multifrequency Stokes $Q$ and $U$ measurements of the microwave sky. Spin-SILC is an internal linear combination method that uses spin wavelets to analyse the spin-2 polarisation …
