Making CMB temperature and polarization maps with Madam

Understand

Madam is a CMB map-making code, designed to make temperature and polarization maps of time-ordered data of total power experiments like Planck.

• The algorithm is based on the destriping technique, but it also makes use of known noise properties in the form of a noise prior.
• The method in its early form was presented in an earlier work by Keihanen et al.
• (2005).
