Notes.

(a)

Probability of finding the asymmetries in the simulations for exactly same configuration as in the SMICA map.

(b)

Probability of finding the asymmetries between the SEQ quadrant and any other quadrant in the simulations.

(c)

Probability of finding the asymmetries between any pair of quadrants in the simulations.
