Probing Baryons with the Kinematic Sunyae Zel'dovich Effect and Machine Learning Derived Peculiar Velocities using DESI DR2 and ACT DR6

Yulin Gong, Rachel Bean, Patricio A. Gallardo +54

We present novel empirical constraints on average optical depths and gas density profiles from combining kinematic Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect (kSZ) measurements and nonlinear peculi…

SPT-3G+: A Cosmic Microwave Background Experiment for the South Pole Telescope

T. Natoli, Z. Ahmed, H. Athreya +72

SPT-3G+ is the next survey receiver planned to be installed in early 2029 on the 10-meter South Pole Telescope (SPT). This new receiver will feature 6,020 polarization-sensitive di…

The SPT-3G+ receiver design

H. Athreya, Z. Ahmed, J. E. Austermann +71

We present the thermo-mechanical design of the cryostat and camera optics for SPT-3G+, a new receiver being developed for the South Pole Telescope (SPT). The receiver consists of 1…

The Simons Observatory: forecasted constraints on primordial gravitational waves with the expanded array of Small Aperture Telescopes

The Simons Observatory Collaboration, I. Abril-Cabezas, S. Adachi +479

We present updated forecasts for the scientific performance of the degree-scale (0.5 deg FWHM at 93 GHz), deep-field survey to be conducted by the Simons Observatory (SO). By 2027,…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR6 Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Selected Galaxy Clusters Catalog

HSC Collaboration, M. Aguena, S. Aiola +98

We present the results of a search for galaxy clusters in the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) Data Release 6 (DR6) microwave sky maps covering 16293 square degrees in three frequ…

Robustness of pairwise kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect to optical-cluster-selection bias

Y. -H. Hsu, D. Gruen, P. A. Gallardo +5

The pairwise kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich(kSZ) effect measures both the pairwise motion between galaxy groups and clusters and the amount of gas within them, providing a tracer for…
