Abstract

TolTEC is an imaging polarimeter installed on the Large Millimeter Telescope that simultaneously images the sky at 1.1, 1.4, and 2.0 mm. We have developed the open-source, fully parallelized C++ data reduction pipeline, citlali, to process TolTEC's raw time-ordered data for science and calibration observations into on-sky maps, while also performing map coaddition and post-map-making analyses. Here, we describe citlali's structure, including its reduction stages, algorithms, and parallelization scheme. We also present the results of the application of citlali to both TolTEC commissioning data and synthetic observations, characterizing the resulting map properties, as well as the software performance and memory usage.
