Constraints on Cosmology from the Cosmic Microwave Background Power Spectrum of the 2500 SPT-SZ Survey
Z. Hou, C. L. Reichardt, K. T. Story +49
We explore extensions to the CDM cosmology using measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the recent SPT-SZ survey, along with data from WMAP7 and measurement…
Improved constraints on cosmic microwave background secondary anisotropies from the complete 2008 South Pole Telescope data
E. Shirokoff, C. L. Reichardt, L. Shaw +43
We report measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) power spectrum from the complete 2008 South Pole Telescope (SPT) data set. We analyze twice as much data as the firs…
Cosmological Constraints from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich-Selected Clusters with X-ray Observations in the First 178 Square Degrees of the South Pole Telescope Survey
B. A. Benson, T. de Haan, J. P. Dudley +73
We use measurements from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) cluster survey in combination with X-ray measurements to constrain cosmological parameters. We prese…
Weak-Lensing Mass Measurements of Five Galaxy Clusters in the South Pole Telescope Survey Using Magellan/Megacam
F. W. High, H. Hoekstra, N. Leethochawalit +83
We use weak gravitational lensing to measure the masses of five galaxy clusters selected from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) survey, with the primary goal of comparing these with t…
Measurements of Secondary Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies with the South Pole Telescope
M. Lueker, C. L. Reichardt, K. K. Schaffer +40
We report cosmic microwave background (CMB) power spectrum measurements from the first 100 sq. deg. field observed by the South Pole Telescope (SPT) at 150 and 220 GHz. On angular…
Dusty starburst galaxies in the early Universe as revealed by gravitational lensing
J. D. Vieira, D. P. Marrone, S. C. Chapman +67
In the past decade, our understanding of galaxy evolution has been revolutionized by the discovery that luminous, dusty, starburst galaxies were 1,000 times more abundant in the ea…
