Descripción
We present the 8th full focal plane simulation set (FFP8), deployed in
support of the Planck 2015 results. FFP8 consists of 10 fiducial mission
realizations reduced to 18 144 maps, together with the most massive
suite of Monte Carlo realizations of instrument noise and CMB ever
generated, comprising 104 mission realizations reduced to
about 106 maps. The resulting maps incorporate the dominant
instrumental, scanning, and data analysis effects, and the remaining
subdominant effects will be included in future updates. Generated at a
cost of some 25 million CPU-hours spread across multiple
high-performance-computing (HPC) platforms, FFP8 is used to validate and
verify analysis algorithms and their implementations, and to remove
biases from and quantify uncertainties in the results of analyses of the
real data.
