The MAXIMA Experiment: Latest Results and Consistency Tests
R. Stompor, S. Hanany, M. E. Abroe +10
The MAXIMA cosmic microwave background anisotropy experiment had a significant impact on cosmology. Results from the program have played a significant role in determining the geome…
Determining Foreground Contamination in CMB Observations: Diffuse Galactic Emission in the MAXIMA-I Field
A. H. Jaffe, A. Balbi, J. R. Bond +11
Observations of the CMB can be contaminated by diffuse foreground emission from sources such as Galactic dust and synchrotron radiation. In these cases, the morphology of the conta…
Making Maps Of The Cosmic Microwave Background: The MAXIMA Example
R. Stompor, A. Balbi, J. D. Borrill +10
This work describes Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) data analysis algorithms and their implementations, developed to produce a pixelized map of the sky and a corresponding pixel-…
MAXIMA-1: A Measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropy on angular scales of 10 arcminutes to 5 degrees
S. Hanany, P. Ade, A. Balbi +19
We present a map and an angular power spectrum of the anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the first flight of MAXIMA. MAXIMA is a balloon-borne experiment with…
BOOMERanG: a scanning telescope for 10 arcminutes resolution CMB maps
S. Masi, P. A. R. Ade, R. Artusa +24
The BOOMERanG experiment is a stratospheric balloon telescope intended to measure the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy at angular scales between a few degrees and ten arcminu…
MAXIMA: an experiment to measure temperature anisotropy in the cosmic microwave background
A. T. Lee, P. Ade, A. Balbi +21
We describe the MAXIMA experiment, a balloon-borne measurement designed to map temperature anisotropy in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) over a wide range of angular scales (…
