Measurements of Degree-Scale B-mode Polarization with the BICEP/Keck Experiments at South Pole
Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +76
The BICEP and Keck Array experiments are a suite of small-aperture refracting telescopes observing the microwave sky from the South Pole. They target the degree-scale B-mode polari…
Thermal, Structural, and Optical Analysis of a Balloon-Based Imaging System
Michael Borden, Derek Lewis, Hared Ochoa +6
The Subarcsecond Telescope And BaLloon Experiment, STABLE, is the fine stage of a guidance system for a high-altitude ballooning platform designed to demonstrate subarcsecond point…
Characterization of a commercial, front-illuminated interline transfer CCD camera for use as a guide camera on a balloon-borne telescope
Paul Clark, Richard Massey, Herrick L. Chang +10
We report results obtained during the characterization of a commercial front-illuminated progressive scan interline transfer CCD camera. We demonstrate that the unmodified camera o…
The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) -- I. Survey motivation, design and data processing
A. M. J. Mortier, S. Serjeant, J. S. Dunlop +2
The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) is a major blank-field extragalactic sub-mm survey underway at the James Clerk Maxwell telescope.SHADES aims to cover half a squ…
How accurately can suborbital experiments measure the CMB?
Angelica de Oliveira-Costa, Max Tegmark, Mark Devlin +4
Great efforts are currently being channeled into ground- and balloon-based CMB experiments, mainly to explore anisotropy on small angular scales and polarization. To optimize instr…
A Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope
Mark J. Devlin
A new generation of sub-orbital platforms will be operational in the next few years. These new telescopes will operate from airborne and balloon-borne platforms where the atmospher…
