Theoretical power spectra for the lensed-ΛCDM model, described in Section 5.1 of BICEP2 I. Includes the model parameters, the unbinned spectra calculated by CAMB (March 2013 version) and the binned expectation values of the bandpowers. Note that these are nearly identical to the theoretical spectra provided with the BICEP2 2014 release, except that the accuracy of the CAMB lensing calculation has been increased and the bandpower window functions of Keck Array are slightly different. |
