The Potential of Exozodiacal Disks Observations with the WFIRST Coronagraph Instrument
B. Mennesson, V. Bailey, J. Kasdin +60
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) Coronagraph Instrument (CGI) will be the first high-performance stellar coronagraph using active wavefront control for deep starli…
A study of meson and baryon decays to strange final states with GlueX in Hall D (A proposal to the 39th Jefferson Lab Program Advisory Committee)
The GlueX Collaboration, M. Dugger, B. Ritchie +76
The primary motivation of the GlueX experiment is to search for and ultimately study the pattern of gluonic excitations in the meson spectrum produced in gamma p collisions. Recent…
QUBIC VIII: Optical design and performance
C. O'Sullivan, M. De Petris, G. Amico +126
The Q and U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology (QUBIC) is a ground-based experiment that aims to detect B-mode polarisation anisotropies in the CMB at angular scales around th…
Comparison of Nb and Ta Pentoxide Loss Tangents for Superconducting Quantum Devices
D. P. Goronzy, W. W. Mah, P. G. Lim +14
Superconducting transmon qubits are commonly made with thin-film Nb wiring, but recent studies have shown increased performance with Ta wiring. In this work, we compare the resonat…
QUBIC I: Overview and ScienceProgram
J. -Ch. Hamilton, L. Mousset, E. S. Battistelli +127
The Q U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology (QUBIC) is a novel kind of polarimeter optimized for the measurement of the B-mode polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Backgro…
QUBIC Technical Design Report
J. Aumont, S. Banfi, P. Battaglia +96
QUBIC is an instrument aiming at measuring the B mode polarisation anisotropies at medium scales angular scales (30-200 multipoles). The search for the primordial CMB B-mode polari…
