Destriping Cosmic Microwave Background Polarimeter data

Andrea Zonca, Brian Williams, Peter Meinhold +1

Destriping is a well-established technique for removing low-frequency correlated noise from Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) survey data. In this paper we present a destriping alg…

Modeling the frequency response of microwave radiometers with QUCS

Andrea Zonca, Bastien Roucaries, Brian Williams +8

Characterization of the frequency response of coherent radiometric receivers is a key element in estimating the flux of astrophysical emissions, since the measured signal depends o…

The Cosmic Foreground Explorer (COFE): A balloon-borne microwave polarimeter to characterize polarized foregrounds

Rodrigo Leonardi, Brian Williams, Marco Bersanelli +8

The COsmic Foreground Explorer (COFE) is a balloon-borne microwave polarime- ter designed to measure the low-frequency and low-l characteristics of dominant diffuse polarized foreg…

The CMB Power Spectrum from the Background Emission Anisotropy Scanning Telescope (BEAST) Experiment

Ian J. O'Dwyer, Marco Bersanelli, Jeffrey Childers +19

The Background Emission Anisotropy Scanning Telescope (BEAST) is a 2.2m off-axis telescope with an 8 element mixed Q (38-45GHz) and Ka (26-36GHz) band focal plane, designed for bal…

A Map of the Cosmic Microwave Background from the BEAST Experiment

Peter R. Meinhold, Marco Bersanelli, Jeffrey Childers +24

We present the first sky maps from the BEAST (Background Emission Anisotropy Scanning Telescope) experiment. BEAST consists of a 2.2 meter off axis Gregorian telescope fed by a cry…
