Design and pre-flight performance of SPIDER 280 GHz receivers
E. C. Shaw, P. A. R. Ade, S. Akers +79
In this work we describe upgrades to the Spider balloon-borne telescope in preparation for its second flight, currently planned for December 2021. The Spider instrument is optimize…
Polarization Calibration of the BICEP3 CMB polarimeter at the South Pole
J. Cornelison, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84
The BICEP3 CMB Polarimeter is a small-aperture refracting telescope located at the South Pole and is specifically designed to search for the possible signature of inflationary grav…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Detection of mm-wave transient sources
Sigurd Naess, Nick Battaglia, J. Richard Bond +29
We report on the serendipitous discovery of three transient mm-wave sources using data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope. The first, detected at RA = 273.8138, dec = -49.4628 at…
A Demonstration of Improved Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves with Delensing
BICEP/Keck, SPTpol Collaborations, : +139
We present a constraint on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, , derived from measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization -modes with "delensing," whereby the unce…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR5 maps of 18,000 square degrees of the microwave sky from ACT 2008-2018 data
Sigurd Naess, Simone Aiola, Jason E. Austermann +59
This paper presents a maximum-likelihood algorithm for combining sky maps with disparate sky coverage, angular resolution and spatially varying anisotropic noise into a single map…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: A CMB lensing mass map over 2100 square degrees of sky and its cross-correlation with BOSS-CMASS galaxies
Omar Darwish, Mathew S. Madhavacheril, Blake Sherwin +50
We construct cosmic microwave background lensing mass maps using data from the 2014 and 2015 seasons of observations with the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). These maps cover 21…
