Status of BICEP Array and Integration of the 220/270 GHz Receiver
A. Steiger, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83
Measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background are critical for modern cosmology as they constrain the physics of the early universe and cosmic inflation. BICE…
Quantifying the systematic impact of differential beam response on the BICEP CMB polarization data from 2016 through 2024
B. D. Elwood, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83
As cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiments, including BICEP3, BICEP Array, and future BICEP experiments, achieve ever-deeper polarization maps in search of primo…
Optics and broadband anti-reflection coatings for the BA4-90/150 receiver
A. R. Polish, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84
The BICEP Array telescopes search for primordial B-mode polarization from inflationary gravitational waves. This signal is exceedingly faint, demanding excellent map depth and syst…
Advanced Time-Division Multiplexed Readout Chain for the BICEP Array 90/150 GHz Receiver
B. Cantrall, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +89
This work presents the current performance of the advanced time-division multiplexed (TDM) readout chain for the BICEP Array 90/150 GHz receiver. BA4-90/150, scheduled for deployme…
Optical characterization of the BICEP array 150 and 220/270GHz CMB polarimeters in the 2026 season
M. Izquierdo Poza, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +82
BICEP Array (BA) is the current-generation instrument in the BICEP series of small-aperture, on-axis refracting telescopes at the South Pole, designed to constrain the tensor-to-sc…
Aliased noise characterization and mitigation in BICEP Array 150, 220 and 270 GHz time-division multiplexed detectors
S. Fatigoni, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83
Early observations with the BICEP Array 150 GHz (BA2-150) and 220/270 GHz (BA3-220/270) receivers revealed detector noise equivalent temperatures (NETs) higher than expected, toget…
Overview and status of BICEP Array's BA4-90/150 CMB polarimeter
M. A. Petroff, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83
The inflation paradigm postulates a period of rapid expansion in the early Universe, which would generate gravitational waves. These tensor perturbations would produce a faint B-mo…
Controlling instrumental systematics for the BICEP inflation survey
C. Vergès, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +92
The BICEP series of experiments has been observing CMB polarisation from the South Pole for over 20 years, with the goal of constraining inflationary gravitational waves. The upcom…
BICEP/Keck XXI: Constraints on Early-Universe Parity Violation from Multipole-Dependent Birefringence
Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Zeeshan Ahmed +94
We present the first constraints on multipole-dependent cosmic birefringence using CMB polarization data from the BK18 dataset, which combines observations from BICEP2, Keck Array,…
Calibration Measurements of the BICEP3 and BICEP Array CMB Polarimeters from 2017 to 2024
Christos Giannakopoulos, Clara Vergès, P. A. R. Ade +83
The BICEP3 and BICEP Array polarimeters are small-aperture refracting telescopes located at the South Pole designed to measure primordial gravitational wave signatures in the Cosmi…
Multi-layer anti-reflection coats using ePTFE membrane for mm-wavelength plastic optics
Miranda Eiben, Keara Carter, Marion Dierickx +7
Future millimeter wavelength experiments aim to both increase aperture diameters and broaden bandwidths to increase the sensitivity of the receivers. These changes produce a challe…
The correct estimate of the probability of false detection of the matched filter in the detection of weak signals. II. (Further results with application to a set of ALMA and ATCA data)
Roberto Vio, Clara Verges, Paola Andreani
The matched filter (MF) is one of the most popular and reliable techniques to the detect signals of known structure and amplitude smaller than the level of the contaminating noise.…
