Hamza’s paper is out !
Two B3DCMB papers accepted !
Two most recent papers, led by B3DCMB students, have been accepted for publication. The map-making paper by Hamza and collaborators, presents the MAPPRAISER software which implements state-of-the-art map-making methods based on novel, B3DCMB developed numerical solvers. The manuscript will be …
Map-making paper and software are out !
Hamza’s map-making paper is finally out ! Check it out on arXiv. The work led by Hamza is a result of a truly collaborative and multi-disciplinary effort. For us in the trenches this showcases the added value and usefulness of …

Search for a postdoctoral researcher continues !!!
We continue looking for a postdoctoral researcher who will work at the APC Laboratory on CMB data analysis and in particular on component separation techniques. The post is now officially advertised on the National Center for Scientific Research website.…
A talk featuring results of the B3DCMB project
Some of the results and contributions of the B3DCMB project including a brief overview of the MIDAPACK library were featured in an invited talk given by R. Stompor on “Computational challenges of the cosmic microwave background data analysis” …

The paper by Giuseppe on “Iterative map-making with two-level preconditioning for polarized cosmic microwave background data sets. A worked example for ground-based experiments” (see Davide’s post here) has been just published (Puglisi et al, 2018, Astronomy & Astrophysics, …
New paper on linear solvers for the CMB data analysis
CMB data analysis commonly involves solution of large systems of equations. Finding appropriate solvers for these systems is a subject of ongoing research and one of the aims of B3DCMB project. The fact that, in general, the system matrix cannot …
One more step towards getting CMB maps in fewer steps
Cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments chase faint signals from the primordial universe by continuously scanning the sky for years. Their cameras are typically read out hundreds of times per second, delivering the so-called time ordered data, which are nothing but …
