Separation of instrumental and astrophysical foregrounds for mapping CMB anisotropies

Abstract

We address the extended problem of component separation for CMB applications when a mixture of both astrophysical and instrumental components are present in the observations, and show how standard methods can be adapted to handle this more complex inversion problem.
