Anti-reflection Coated Vacuum Window for the Primordial Inflation Polarization ExploreR (PIPER) balloon-borne instrument
Rahul Datta, David T. Chuss, Joseph Eimer +12
Measuring the faint polarization signal of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) not only requires high optical throughput and instrument sensitivity but also control over systemat…
Fabrication of phononic filter structures for far-IR/sub-mm detector applications
Kevin L. Denis, Karwan Rostem, Marco A. Sagliocca +2
A photon noise limited sub-mm/far-IR cold telescope in space will require detectors with noise equivalent power (NEP) less than 1x10-19 W/Hz1/2 for imaging applications and at leas…
Design and characterization of the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) 93 GHz focal plane
Sumit Dahal, Aamir Ali, John W. Appel +44
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) aims to detect and characterize the primordial B-mode signal and make a sample-variance-limited measurement of the optical depth…
A Compact Cryogenic Thermal Source for Detector Array Characterization
David T. Chuss, Karwan Rostem, Edward J. Wollack +5
We describe the design, fabrication, and validation of a cryogenically-compatible quasioptical thermal source designed to be used for characterization of detector arrays. The sourc…
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor
Kathleen Harrington, Tobias Marriage, Aamir Ali +33
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is a four telescope array designed to characterize relic primordial gravitational waves from inflation and the optical depth to r…
