The Simons Observatory: Galactic Science Goals and Forecasts

Brandon S. Hensley, Susan E. Clark, Valentina Fanfani +31

Observing in six frequency bands from 27 to 280 GHz over a large sky area, the Simons Observatory (SO) is poised to address many questions in Galactic astrophysics in addition to i…

Atacama Cosmology Telescope measurements of a large sample of candidates from the Massive and Distant Clusters of WISE Survey: Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect confirmation of MaDCoWS candidates using ACT

John Orlowski-Scherer, Luca Di Mascolo, Tanay Bhandarkar +35

Galaxy clusters are an important tool for cosmology, and their detection and characterization are key goals for current and future surveys. Using data from the Wide-field Infrared…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Microwave Intensity and Polarization Maps of the Galactic Center

Yilun Guan, Susan E. Clark, Brandon S. Hensley +30

We present arcminute-resolution intensity and polarization maps of the Galactic center made with the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). The maps cover a 32 deg field at 98, 150…

Probing galaxy evolution in massive clusters using ACT and DES: splashback as a cosmic clock

Susmita Adhikari, Tae-hyeon Shin, Bhuvnesh Jain +113

We measure the projected number density profiles of galaxies and the splashback feature in clusters selected by the Sunyaev--Zeldovich (SZ) effect from the Advanced Atacama Cosmolo…

Quantifying the Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect and Excess Millimeter Emission in Quasar Environments

Kirsten R. Hall, Nadia L. Zakamska, Graeme Addison +23

In this paper we probe the hot, post-shock gas component of quasar-driven winds through the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect. Combining datasets from the Atacama Cosmology T…
