24 improvements : 1.effective range : l < 300 l < 600, covering the first 3 peaks; 2. errors only ~ 3%; 3. C TT l and C TE l are also obtained ;

25 ν- free-streaming has small modifications:
26
26 ν- free-streaming : 1. amplitude reduced by 20 ~ 35 % for l > 100; 2. C l XX are shifted slightly to larger l with Δl ∝ l. Δl =(1~5) ; (for the first two peaks)
27
27 Zero multipole method: to examine the value l ~ 50,where C TE l crosses 0. Our results: Δl by NFS is the same order of magnitude as those caused by inflation index β inf and Ω b. More works are needed before a conclusion can be made.
