COMMENT Results of singular value decomposition of the N-inverse covariance
COMMENT matrix for the year 5 Res 4 maps for the differencing assembly
COMMENT indicated by the DA keyword. The form of the decomposition
COMMENT is N^{-1} = u * s * u^T. The decomposition was done on N^{-1}
COMMENT in Nobs units. The results have been scaled to units of 1/mK**2
COMMENT by dividing the original s values for this DA by 37.5468 mK**2.
COMMENT The matrix u is an orthogonal 4NPIX x 4NPIX matrix, stored in the
COMMENT primary data array. The diagonal matrix of eigenvalues s, scaled to
COMMENT 1/mK**2, is stored as a vector of length 4NPIX in the FITS extension.
