Ratio of Y500 measured from A10 fits to Bolocam using a Chandra prior on ﹩{\theta }_{{\rm{s}}}﹩ and Y500 measured from the Planck MMF3 algorithm using the A10 model with an XMM-like prior on ﹩{\theta }_{{\rm{s}}}﹩. The Chandra value of ﹩{\theta }_{{\rm{s}}}﹩ is larger by an average fraction of 1.16, resulting in systematically larger values of Y500 measured by Bolocam. The Y500 ratio is shown as a function of M500, with the 68% confidence interval of linear fits from LINMIX_ERR overlaid in orange. This linear fit provides a mapping from the Bolocam measurements of Y500 to the Planck measurements of Y500, allowing for a test of the Planck completeness using the Bolocam data.
