Designs for next generation CMB survey strategies from Chile
Jason R. Stevens, Neil Goeckner-Wald, Reijo Keskitalo +20
New telescopes are being built to measure the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) with unprecedented sensitivity, including Simons Observatory (SO), CCAT-prime, the BICEP Array, SPT-…
The Simons Observatory: Instrument Overview
Nicholas Galitzki, Aamir Ali, Kam S. Arnold +75
The Simons Observatory (SO) will make precise temperature and polarization measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using a set of telescopes which will cover angular…
The Simons Observatory: Science goals and forecasts
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Peter Ade, James Aguirre +247
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a new cosmic microwave background experiment being built on Cerro Toco in Chile, due to begin observations in the early 2020s. We describe the scient…
Advanced ACTPol TES Device Parameters and Noise Performance in Fielded Arrays
