Polypropylene Embedded Metal-Mesh Broadband Achromatic Half Wave Plate for Millimeter Wavelengths

Jin Zhang, Peter Ade, Philip Mauskopf +3

We describe a novel multi-layered metal mesh achromatic half wave plate for use in astronomical polarimetric instruments. The half wave plate is designed to operate across the freq…

A New Artificial Dielectric Metamaterial and its Application as a THz Anti-Reflection Coating

Jin Zhang, Peter Ade, Philip Mauskopf +3

We describe a novel artificial dielectric material which has applications at millimetre and submillimetre wavelengths. The material is manufactured from layers of metal mesh patter…

SPIDER: a balloon-borne CMB polarimeter for large angular scales

J. P. Filippini, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +41

We describe SPIDER, a balloon-borne instrument to map the polarization of the millimeter-wave sky with degree angular resolution. Spider consists of six monochromatic refracting te…

Physical conditions of the interstellar medium of high-redshift, strongly lensed submillimetre galaxies from the Herschel-ATLAS

Ivan Valtchanov, J. Virdee, R. J. Ivison +51

We present Herschel-SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) and radio follow-up observations of two Herschel-ATLAS (H-ATLAS) detected strongly lensed distant galaxies. In one of…

Warm water vapour in the sooty outflow from a luminous carbon star

L. Decin, M. Agundez, M. J. Barlow +34

In 2001, the discovery of circumstellar water vapour around the ageing carbon star IRC+10216 was announced. This detection challenged the current understanding of chemistry in old…
