A Millimeter-Wave Galactic Plane Survey With The BICEP Polarimeter
E. M. Bierman, T. Matsumura, C. D. Dowell +26
In addition to its potential to probe the Inflationary cosmological paradigm, millimeter-wave polarimetry is a powerful tool for studying the Milky Way galaxy's composition and mag…
Planck Early Results: The Planck mission
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +272
The European Space Agency's Planck satellite was launched on 14 May 2009, and has been surveying the sky stably and continuously since 13 August 2009. Its performance is well in li…
Absolute polarization angle calibration using polarized diffuse Galactic emission observed by BICEP
Tomotake Matsumura, Peter Ade, Denis Barkats +25
We present a method of cross-calibrating the polarization angle of a polarimeter using BICEP Galactic observations. \bicep\ was a ground based experiment using an array of 49 pairs…
The QUaD Galactic Plane Survey 1: Maps And Analysis of Diffuse Emission
T. Culverhouse, P. Ade, J. Bock +28
We present a survey of ~800 square degrees of the galactic plane observed with the QUaD telescope. The primary product of the survey are maps of Stokes I, Q and U parameters at 100…
Antenna-coupled TES bolometer arrays for CMB polarimetry
C. L. Kuo, J. J. Bock, J. A. Bonetti +14
We describe the design and performance of polarization selective antenna-coupled TES arrays that will be used in several upcoming Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiments: SPI…
Markov Chain Beam Randomization: a study of the impact of PLANCK beam measurement errors on cosmological parameter estimation
G. Rocha, L. Pagano, K. M. Górski +3
We introduce a new method to propagate uncertainties in the beam shapes used to measure the cosmic microwave background to cosmological parameters determined from those measurement…
