Abstract:

A maximum entropy method (MEM) is presented for separating the emission due to different foreground components from simulated satellite observations of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR). In Jones & Hobson (1998, these proceedings), the method is applied to simulated observations by the proposed Planck Surveyor satellite. The method is also compared with traditional Wiener filtering.
