W-band prototype of platelet feed-horn array for CMB polarisation measurements

Francesco Del Torto, Marco Bersanelli, Francesco Cavaliere +10

We present the design and performance of a 2x2 prototype array of corrugated feed-horns in W-band. The module is fabricated using a so-called "platelet" technique by milling Alumin…

Systematic error mitigation in multiple field astrometry

Mario Gai

Combination of more than two fields provides constraints on the systematic error of simultaneous observations. The concept is investigated in the context of the Gravitation Astrome…
