Validation of harmonic-space likelihood methods for LiteBIRD B-mode polarisation analysis
G. Galloni, P. Campeti, C. Gimeno-Amo +112
The LiteBIRD satellite mission aims to measure the tensor-to-scalar ratio with unprecedented sensitivity through observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) -mode…
The Simons Observatory: Frequency-resolved beam calibration for the SO SATs with POLOCALC
Nadia Dachlythra, Gabriele Coppi, Ludovico Bizzarri +30
We present a far-field beam calibration of the Simons Observatory (SO) Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) using scanned single-frequency measurements of a drone-mounted source emitti…
The Simons Observatory: Commissioning of the Mid-Frequency Small Aperture Telescopes
Kathleen Harrington, Remington Gerras, Nicholas Galitzki +88
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) survey experiment observing from an altitude of 5,200 m in the Atacama Desert in Chile. The SO Small Aperture Tel…
Differential Polarization Calibration: A Consistency Test for Cosmic Birefringence
Anto I. Lonappan, Brian Keating, Kam Arnold
The cosmic microwave background birefringence angle is exactly degenerate with a common instrumental polarization-angle offset. The Minami--Komatsu(MK) likelihood separates the…
Sensitivity of Next-Generation CMB Surveys to Neutrinos and Other Light Relics
Cynthia Trendafilova, Srinivasan Raghunathan, Benjamin Wallisch +33
Neutrinos and other light relics leave characteristic imprints in the cosmic microwave background anisotropies, making their observation a sensitive probe of the particle content a…
LiteBIRD Mission Overview after Mission Reformation
LiteBIRD Collaboration, K. Aizawa, H. Akamatsu +172
LiteBIRD is a JAXA-led space mission designed to produce all-sky microwave polarization maps. Its primary science goal is to test representative inflationary models by measuring th…
Galactic Science with the LiteBIRD satellite: Spectral characterization of diffuse Galactic polarized emission at the angular power spectrum level
S. Vinzl, J. Aumont, L. Vacher +108
Detection of primordial -mode polarization in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from tensor perturbations generated during inflation is a major scientific goal of future CMB…
A cross-calibration approach for polarisation-sensitive detectors in CMB experiments: application to LiteBIRD's polarisation angle calibration
A. Novelli, F. Piacentini, S. Micheli +102
We present a cross-calibration algorithm that determines the relative calibration of detectors within the same frequency band of a CMB experiment. The method iteratively compares s…
Constraints on Cosmic Strings from the Curl-Mode CMB Lensing Power Spectrum measured by ACT DR6
A. I. Lonappan, K. Ramesh, T. Namikawa +2
A network of cosmic strings is one of the few well-motivated cosmological sources of vector and tensor metric perturbations on the largest observable scales. Such perturbations imp…
Mitigating half-wave plate systematics at the map-making level: calibration requirements for LiteBIRD
N. Raffuzzi, A. Carones, M. Monelli +101
Although half-wave plates (HWPs) are becoming a popular choice of polarization modulators for cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments, their non-idealities can introduce syst…
