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…
Microwave multiplexing on the Keck Array
Ari Cukierman, Zeeshan Ahmed, Shawn Henderson +82
We describe an on-sky demonstration of a microwave-multiplexing readout system in one of the receivers of the Keck Array, a polarimetry experiment observing the cosmic microwave ba…
Mapping Large-Scale-Structure Evolution over Cosmic Times
Marta B. Silva, Ely D. Kovetz, Garrett K. Keating +6
This paper outlines the science case for line-intensity mapping with a space-borne instrument targeting the sub-millimeter (microwaves) to the far-infrared (FIR) wavelength range.…
Delensing Degree-Scale -Mode Polarization with High-Redshift Line Intensity Mapping
Kirit S. Karkare
Cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments that constrain the tensor-to-scalar ratio are now approaching the sensitivity at which delensing---removing the modes induced…
CMB-S4 Decadal Survey APC White Paper
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We provide an overview of the science case, instrument configuration and project plan for the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4, for consid…
Astro2020 APC White Paper: The Early Career Perspective on the Coming Decade, Astrophysics Career Paths, and the Decadal Survey Process
Emily Moravec, Ian Czekala, Kate Follette +53
In response to the need for the Astro2020 Decadal Survey to explicitly engage early career astronomers, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine hosted the Ear…
CMB-S4 Science Case, Reference Design, and Project Plan
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We present the science case, reference design, and project plan for the Stage-4 ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4.
BICEP2 / Keck Array XI: Beam Characterization and Temperature-to-Polarization Leakage in the BK15 Dataset
Keck Array, BICEP2 Collaborations, : +76
Precision measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization require extreme control of instrumental systematics. In a companion paper we have presented cosmological co…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Insights Into the Epoch of Reionization with the Highly-Redshifted 21-cm Line
Steven Furlanetto, Chris L. Carilli, Jordan Mirocha +47
The epoch of reionization, when photons from early galaxies ionized the intergalactic medium about a billion years after the Big Bang, is the last major phase transition in the Uni…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Synergies Between Galaxy Surveys and Reionization Measurements
Steven Furlanetto, Adam Beardsley, Chris L. Carilli +47
The early phases of galaxy formation constitute one of the most exciting frontiers in astrophysics. It is during this era that the first luminous sources reionize the intergalactic…
Cosmology with the Highly Redshifted 21cm Line
Adrian Liu, James Aguirre, Yacine Ali-Haimoud +47
In addition to being a probe of Cosmic Dawn and Epoch of Reionization astrophysics, the 21cm line at is also a powerful way to constrain cosmology. Its power derives from sev…
Astro 2020 Science White Paper: Fundamental Cosmology in the Dark Ages with 21-cm Line Fluctuations
Steven Furlanetto, Judd D. Bowman, Jordan Mirocha +43
The Dark Ages are the period between the last scattering of the cosmic microwave background and the appearance of the first luminous sources, spanning approximately 1100 < z < 30.…
Primordial Non-Gaussianity
P. Daniel Meerburg, Daniel Green, Muntazir Abidi +175
Our current understanding of the Universe is established through the pristine measurements of structure in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the distribution and shapes of…
Mapping Cosmic Dawn and Reionization: Challenges and Synergies
Marcelo A. Alvarez, Anastasia Fialkov, Paul La Plante +47
Cosmic dawn and the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) are among the least explored observational eras in cosmology: a time at which the first galaxies and supermassive black holes formed…
