Caption: Figure 1.

Upper: the SPT bandpowers from S13 (dark blue) and WMAP 7 TT bandpowers (red) with l ∈ [500, 3000]. The solid curve shows the best-fit ΛCDM model including the best-fit extragalactic foreground components with priors for the combination of SPT and WMAP 7 data. An additional normalization factor of l 2 has been applied to enhance the feature of the CMB damping tail. Lower: the residual between the data and the best-fit ΛCDM model with extragalactic foregrounds. As discussed in S13, the data are consistent with the standard cosmology.
