Analysis of Polarized Dust Emission Using Data from the First Flight of SPIDER
SPIDER Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +67
Using data from the first flight of SPIDER and from Planck HFI, we probe the properties of polarized emission from interstellar dust in the SPIDER observing region. Component separ…
Conceptual Design of the Modular Detector and Readout System for the CMB-S4 survey experiment
D. R. Barron, Z. Ahmed, J. Aguilar +47
We present the conceptual design of the modular detector and readout system for the Cosmic Microwave Background Stage 4 (CMB-S4) ground-based survey experiment. CMB-S4 will map the…
Snowmass 2021 CMB-S4 White Paper
Kevork Abazajian, Arwa Abdulghafour, Graeme E. Addison +353
This Snowmass 2021 White Paper describes the Cosmic Microwave Background Stage 4 project CMB-S4, which is designed to cross critical thresholds in our understanding of the origin a…
The XFaster Power Spectrum and Likelihood Estimator for the Analysis of Cosmic Microwave Background Maps
A. E. Gambrel, A. S. Rahlin, X. Song +64
We present the XFaster analysis package. XFaster is a fast, iterative angular power spectrum estimator based on a diagonal approximation to the quadratic Fisher matrix estimator. X…
A Constraint on Primordial -Modes from the First Flight of the SPIDER Balloon-Borne Telescope
SPIDER Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +68
We present the first linear polarization measurements from the 2015 long-duration balloon flight of SPIDER, an experiment designed to map the polarization of the cosmic microwave b…
Design and pre-flight performance of SPIDER 280 GHz receivers
E. C. Shaw, P. A. R. Ade, S. Akers +79
In this work we describe upgrades to the Spider balloon-borne telescope in preparation for its second flight, currently planned for December 2021. The Spider instrument is optimize…
