A minimal power-spectrum-based moment expansion for CMB B-mode searches

S. Azzoni, M. H. Abitbol, D. Alonso +3

The characterization and modeling of polarized foregrounds has become a critical issue in the quest for primordial -modes. A typical method to proceed is to factorize and parame…

The Simons Observatory: gain, bandpass and polarization-angle calibration requirements for B-mode searches

Maximilian H. Abitbol, David Alonso, Sara M. Simon +45

We quantify the calibration requirements for systematic uncertainties for next-generation ground-based observatories targeting the large-angle -mode polarization of the Cosmic M…

Inpainting CMB maps using Partial Convolutional Neural Networks

Gabriele Montefalcone, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Darsh Kodwani +1

We present a novel application of partial convolutional neural networks (PCNN) that can inpaint masked images of the cosmic microwave background. The network can reconstruct both t…

Measuring the Hubble constant from the cooling of the CMB monopole

Maximilian H. Abitbol, J. Colin Hill, Jens Chluba

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) monopole temperature evolves with the inverse of the cosmological scale factor, independent of many cosmological assumptions. With sufficient…

Microwave Spectro-Polarimetry of Matter and Radiation across Space and Time

Jacques Delabrouille, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Nabila Aghanim +77

This paper discusses the science case for a sensitive spectro-polarimetric survey of the microwave sky. Such a survey would provide a tomographic and dynamic census of the three-di…

PICO: Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins

S. Hanany, M. Alvarez, E. Artis +79

The Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins (PICO) is a proposed probe-scale space mission consisting of an imaging polarimeter operating in frequency bands between 20 and 800 GHz. W…
