Modeling of the atmospheric signal and other contaminants in cosmological data
The measurements of the cosmic microwave background radiation done from the ground suffer from atmospheric contamination, as well as other contaminants. This justifies the development of new models to identify and treat these contaminants, aiming to produce clean maps of the background signal. Our group is an active collaborator of several CMB experiments installed in Chile, contributing among other things to the analysis and reduction of raw data, including the modeling of contamination and systematic effects contained in the data. In this IPRE the student will develop computational and mathematical methods to model and extract the atmospheric signal from real raw data obtained by the ACT telescope. His/her results will be potentially implemented in the real pipeline for the production of better CMB maps.
