Forecasting ground-based sensitivity to the Rayleigh scattering of the CMB in the presence of astrophysical foregrounds
Karia R. Dibert, Adam J. Anderson, Amy N. Bender +9
The Rayleigh scattering of cosmic microwave background (CMB) photons off the neutral hydrogen produced during recombination effectively creates an additional scattering surface aft…
Unified and consistent structure growth measurements from joint ACT, SPT and \textit{Planck} CMB lensing
Frank J. Qu, Fei Ge, W. L. Kimmy Wu +143
We present the tightest cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing constraints to date on the growth of structure by combining CMB lensing measurements from the Atacama Cosmology Te…
The Simulation and Design of an On-Chip Superconducting Millimetre Filter-Bank Spectrometer
Gethin Robson, Adam J. Anderson, Peter S. Barry +2
Superconducting on-chip filter-banks provide a scalable, space saving solution to create imaging spectrometers at millimetre and sub-millimetre wavelengths. We present an easy to r…
Report of the Topical Group on Dark Energy and Cosmic Acceleration: Complementarity of Probes and New Facilities for Snowmass 2021
Brenna Flaugher, Vivian Miranda, David J. Schlegel +27
The mechanism(s) driving the early- and late-time accelerated expansion of the Universe represent one of the most compelling mysteries in fundamental physics today. The path to und…
Halo-Independent Direct Detection Analyses Without Mass Assumptions
Adam J. Anderson, Patrick J. Fox, Yonatan Kahn +1
Results from direct detection experiments are typically interpreted by employing an assumption about the dark matter velocity distribution, with results presented in the $m_Ï-Ï_n…
Searching for keV Sterile Neutrino Dark Matter with X-ray Microcalorimeter Sounding Rockets
Enectali Figueroa-Feliciano, Adam J. Anderson, Daniel Castro +9
High-resolution X-ray spectrometers onboard suborbital sounding rockets can search for dark matter candidates that produce X-ray lines, such as decaying keV-scale sterile neutrinos…
Design and Validation of a Cold Load for Characterization of CMB-S4 Detectors
Cesiley L. King, Ian Gullet, Adam J. Anderson +7
We present the design and validation of a variable temperature cryogenic blackbody source, hereinafter called a cold load, that will be used to characterize detectors to be deploye…
Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier: Cosmic Microwave Background Measurements White Paper
Clarence L. Chang, Kevin M. Huffenberger, Bradford A. Benson +128
This is a solicited whitepaper for the Snowmass 2021 community planning exercise. The paper focuses on measurements and science with the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). The CMB…
Characterization of MKIDs for CMB observation at 220 GHz with the South Pole Telescope
Karia R. Dibert, Peter S. Barry, Adam J. Anderson +11
We present an updated design of the 220 GHz microwave kinetic inductance detector (MKID) pixel for SPT-3G+, the next-generation camera for the South Pole Telescope. We show results…
