  1. Resolving the CIB:I) Methods to identify the sources responsible for the CIB Deciphering the CIB Banyuls 08/10/2012 Matthieu BétherminCEA Saclay

  2. The extragalactic background light (EBL) SED of the extragalactic background light (from Dole & Béthermin, in prep.)

  3. Absolutemeasurements:need an absolutephotometry and an accurateremoving of the foregrounds. Upperlimits:derivedfrom the absorptions of TeV photons from the blazars by the COB/CIB. Lowerlimits:from the numbercounts and statistical analyses (stacking, P(D)). Measurements of the cosmic infrared background (CIB) level Total extrapolated contribution Direct counts Stacking Measurements of the cosmicinfrared background (from Béthermin+11, CRF proceeding)

  4. SUMMARY • ABSOLUTE MESUREMENTS OF THE CIB • UPPER LIMITS FROM OPACITY OF THE UNIVERSE TO TEV PHOTONS • LOWER LIMITS FROM DEEP SURVEY (AND SOME TECHNICAL STUFFS ABOUT SOURCE EXTRACTION AND COUNTS) • MORE STRINGENT LOWER LIMITS BY STACKING ANALYSIS • GO DEEPER WITH P(D) ANALYSIS

  25. SOURCE EXTRACTION: IN A VERY SIMPLIFIED CASE Let’s discuss this (over-?)simplified case: • The PSF is a Dirac (i.e. the flux of a source lies only in one pixel). • The source density is small (i.e. less than one source per pixel). • Constant Gaussian instrumental noise. The PDF of the signal (Smes) in pixel hosting a source with a flux Si is: The probability to detect a source for a threshold Sd is: The mean flux of the detected sources with an initial flux Si is:

  26. SOURCE EXTRACTION IN A VERY SIMPLIFIED CASE The mean flux of the detected sources with an initial flux Si is: The probability to detect a source for a threshold Sd is: Completeness for a 5sigma threshold Flux boosting (5 sigma threshold) Smes ≈ Si Smes ≈ Sd

  27. EMPIRICAL ESTIMATION OF COMPLETENESS AND FLUX BOOSTING IN A COMPLEXE CASE Step 1: inject few artificial sources in the real map Step 2: Rerun the extraction tool Step 3: compute the completeness from the fraction of recovered sources (and the flux boosting from their mean flux). Principle of source injection (from Morgan Cousin)
