Five-Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) Observations: Bayesian Estimation of CMB Polarization Maps
Jo Dunkley,David N. Spergel,Eiichiro Komatsu,Gary Hinshaw,David L. Larson,M. R. Nolta,N. Odegard,L. A. Page,Charles L. Bennett,B. Gold,Robert S. Hill,Norman Jarosik,Janet Weiland,Mark Halpern,A. Kogut,Michele Limon,S. S. Meyer,G. S. Tucker,Edward J. Wollack,Edward L. Wright +19 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a sampling method was proposed to estimate the polarized CMB signal from observed maps of the sky using a Metropolis-within-Gibbs algorithm, which was applied to the five-year WMAP data, using the K, Ka, Q and V channels.
