COMMENT This file contains the differencing assembly dependent CMB and galaxy
COMMENT foreground model for the WMAP 7yr simulations. There are three
COMMENT components to the model:
COMMENT 1) The modeled CMB contribution to the sky provided in Stokes I and in
COMMENT Stokes Q and U polarization signals.
COMMENT 2) The Galaxy Stokes I model; a signal is provided for each of
COMMENT the four WMAP channels.
COMMENT 3) The Galaxy polarization model provided as Q and U signals.
COMMENT These models are in the form of HEALPix resolution 10 skymaps, smoothed
COMMENT to a beam response appropriate for the differencing assembly indicated
COMMENT by the DA keyword. Each of these three components is provided in a
COMMENT separate FITS binary table extension in this file.
