Notes. Results are given for the binned and modal estimators. Uncertainties for the binned estimator in this table and the next are Fisher error bars. The modal estimator uses a faster and slightly less correlated expansion of the primordial templates for this test and the next than for other analyses (see Sect. 8.2 for more explanations). These caveats explain why the results shown in this table for the fsky = 0.73 mask display small differences with respect to the corresponding numbers in the main results tables of Sect. 7, for both estimators. We also note that the binned estimator uses max = 2500 and the modal estimator max = 2000, which has an impact on the point source results as explained in the main text.
