BOOMERANG: A Balloon-borne Millimeter Wave Telescope and Total Power Receiver for Mapping Anisotropy in the Cosmic Microwave Background
B. P. Crill, P. A. R. Ade, D. R. Artusa +34
We describe BOOMERANG; a balloon-borne microwave telescope designed to map the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at a resolution of 10' from the Long Duration Balloon (LDB) platfor…
The BOOMERANG North America Instrument: a balloon-borne bolometric radiometer optimized for measurements of cosmic background radiation anisotropies from 0.3 to 4 degrees
F. Piacentini, P. A. R. Ade, R. Bathia +24
We describe the BOOMERANG North America (BNA) instrument, a balloon-borne bolometric radiometer designed to map the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation with 0.3 deg resolut…
Noise estimation in CMB time-streams and fast map-making. Application to the BOOMERanG98 data
S. Prunet, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +35
We describe here an iterative method for jointly estimating the noise power spectrum from a CMB experiment's time-ordered data, together with the maximum-likelihood map. We test th…
First results from the BOOMERanG experiment
P. de Bernardis, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +35
We report the first results from the BOOMERanG experiment, which mapped at 90, 150, 240 and 410 GHz a wide (3%) region of the microwave sky with minimal local contamination. From t…
Detection of anisotropy in the Cosmic Microwave Background at horizon and sub-horizon scales with the BOOMERanG experiment
P. de Bernardis, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +35
BOOMERanG has recently resolved structures on the last scattering surface at redshift 1100 with high signal to noise ratio. We review the technical advances which made this…
A Flat Universe from High-Resolution Maps of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation
P. de Bernardis, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +33
The blackbody radiation left over from the Big Bang has been transformed by the expansion of the Universe into the nearly isotropic 2.73K Cosmic Microwave Background. Tiny inhomoge…
