Notes. For each experimental configuration (EC*) we simulated 3000 measurements and fitted each simulated measurement using Eq. (6). We report the averages of the best-fit parameters with their standard deviation. In the top table we summarize the results for 4-band photometers for both weak and medium prior for Te; in the middle table we report the results for a 6-band photometer (Planck-HFI bands). In the bottom table we report the results for low-resolution (Δν = 6 GHz) spectrometers with increasing mission complexity (balloon, Earth orbit, orbit around the Sun-Earth Lagrangian point L2).

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
