Preliminary Sunyaev Zel'dovich Observations of Galaxy Clusters with OCRA-p
Katy Lancaster, Mark Birkinshaw, Marcin P. Gawronski +6
We present 30 GHz Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) observations of a sample of four galaxy clusters with a prototype of the One Centimetre Receiver Array (OCRA-p) which is mounted on the To…
Planck-LFI: Design and Performance of the 4 Kelvin Reference Load Unit
Luca Valenziano, Francesco Cuttaia, Adriano De Rosa +35
The LFI radiometers use a pseudo-correlation design where the signal from the sky is continuously compared with a stable reference signal, provided by a cryogenic reference load sy…
Sunyaev Zel'dovich observations of a statistically complete sample of galaxy clusters with OCRA-p
Katy Lancaster, Mark Birkinshaw, Marcin P. Gawronski +15
We present 30 GHz Sunyaev Zel'dovich observations of a statistically complete sample of galaxy clusters with OCRA-p. The clusters are the 18 most X-ray luminous clusters at z > 0.2…
