Improved Absolute Polarization Calibrator for BICEP CMB Polarimeters

A. R. Polish, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +89

Cosmic birefringence is a hypothesized parity violation in electromagnetism that predicts a frequency-independent polarization rotation as light propagates. This would rotate the l…

BICEP/Keck XX: Component-separated maps of polarized CMB and thermal dust emission using Planck and BICEP/Keck Observations through the 2018 Observing Season

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +94

We present component-separated polarization maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and Galactic thermal dust emission, derived using data from the BICEP/Keck experiments thr…

BICEP/Keck XIX: Extremely Thin Composite Polymer Vacuum Windows for BICEP and Other High Throughput Millimeter Wave Telescopes

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +90

Millimeter-wave refracting telescopes targeting the degree-scale structure of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have recently grown to diffraction-limited apertures of over 0.5…

BICEP/Keck XVIII: Measurement of BICEP3 polarization angles and consequences for constraining cosmic birefringence and inflation

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83

We use a custom-made calibrator to measure individual detectors' polarization angles of BICEP3, a small aperture telescope observing the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at 95GHz…

Calibration Measurements of the BICEP3 and BICEP Array CMB Polarimeters from 2017 to 2024

Christos Giannakopoulos, Clara Vergès, P. A. R. Ade +83

The BICEP3 and BICEP Array polarimeters are small-aperture refracting telescopes located at the South Pole designed to measure primordial gravitational wave signatures in the Cosmi…

Development of the 220/270 GHz Receiver of BICEP Array

Keck Collaboration, Y. Nakato, P. A. R. Ade +82

Measurements of B-mode polarization in the CMB sourced from primordial gravitational waves would provide information on the energy scale of inflation and its potential form. To ach…
