picoMUX: microcontroller based time-domain multiplexing readout for kilopixel TES arrays
Simon Tartakovsky, Alexandre E. Adler, Jason E. Austermann +23
The paper introduces picoMUX, a microcontroller‑based time‑domain multiplexing readout system for kilopixel transition‑edge sensor (TES) arrays that achieves sub‑microsecond row dw…
Sub-Kelvin Cryogenics for a Super-Pressure Balloon-Borne CMB Polarimeter: Taurus
Jared L. May, Alexandre E. Adler, Jason E. Austermann +23
Taurus is a balloon-borne cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment designed to operate more than 10,000 transition-edge sensor bolometers at a base temperature near 100 mK duri…
In-Flight Performance of Spider's 280 GHz Receivers
Elle C. Shaw, P. A. R. Ade, S. Akers +84
SPIDER is a balloon-borne instrument designed to map the cosmic microwave background at degree-angular scales in the presence of Galactic foregrounds. SPIDER has mapped a large sky…
HK: a modular housekeeping system for cryostats and balloon payloads
Simon Tartakovsky, Steven J. Benton, Aurelien A. Fraisse +5
HK is a versatile experiment housekeeping (HK) system designed to perform cryogenic temperature readout and heater control on the upcoming Taurus balloon experiment. HK, mo…
Thermal architecture for a cryogenic super-pressure balloon payload: design and development of the Taurus flight cryostat
Simon Tartakovsky, Alexandre E. Adler, Jason E. Austermann +20
We describe the cryogenic system being developed for Taurus: a super-pressure balloon-borne microwave polarimeter scheduled to fly in 2027. The Taurus cryogenic system consists of…
Modeling optical systematics for the Taurus CMB experiment
Alexandre E. Adler, Jason E. Austermann, Steven J. Benton +16
We simulate a variety of optical systematics for Taurus, a balloon-borne cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarisation experiment, to assess their impact on large-scale E-mode pol…
