QUBIC II: Spectral polarimetry with bolometric interferometry.

Abstract
Bolometric interferometry is a novel technique that has the ability to perform
spectral imaging. A bolometric interferometer observes the sky in a wide frequency band and
can reconstruct sky maps in several sub-bands within the physical band in post-processing of
the data. This provides a powerful spectral method to discriminate between the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and astrophysical foregrounds. In this paper, the methodology
is illustrated with examples based on the Q & U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology
(QUBIC) which is a ground-based instrument designed to measure the B-mode polarization of
the sky at millimeter wavelengths. We consider the specific cases of point source reconstruction and Galactic dust mapping and we characterize the point spread function as a function
of frequency. We study the noise properties of spectral imaging, especially the correlations
between sub-bands, using end-to-end simulations together with a fast noise simulator. We
conclude showing that spectral imaging performance are nearly optimal up to five sub-bands
in the case of QUBIC.
