A cryogenic rotation stage with a large clear aperture for the half-wave plates in the Spider instrument

Sean Bryan, Peter Ade, Mandana Amiri +47

We describe the cryogenic half-wave plate rotation mechanisms built for and used in Spider, a polarization-sensitive balloon-borne telescope array that observed the Cosmic Microwav…

Comparison of absolute gain photometric calibration between Planck/HFI and Herschel/SPIRE at 545 and 857 GHz

B. Bertincourt, G. Lagache, B. Schulz +14

We compare the absolute gain photometric calibration of the Planck/HFI and Herschel/SPIRE instruments on diffuse emission. The absolute calibration of HFI and SPIRE each relies on…
