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…
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…
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…
BICEP / Keck XIII: Improved Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves using Planck, WMAP, and BICEP/Keck Observations through the 2018 Observing Season
Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +89
We present results from an analysis of all data taken by the BICEP2, Keck Array and BICEP3 CMB polarization experiments up to and including the 2018 observing season. We add additi…
Observing low elevation sky and the CMB Cold Spot with BICEP3 at the South Pole
J. Kang, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84
BICEP3 is a 520 mm aperture on-axis refracting telescope at the South Pole, which observes the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at 95 GHz to search for the B-m…
Polarization Calibration of the BICEP3 CMB polarimeter at the South Pole
J. Cornelison, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84
The BICEP3 CMB Polarimeter is a small-aperture refracting telescope located at the South Pole and is specifically designed to search for the possible signature of inflationary grav…
A Demonstration of Improved Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves with Delensing
BICEP/Keck, SPTpol Collaborations, : +139
We present a constraint on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, , derived from measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization -modes with "delensing," whereby the unce…
Optical Design and Characterization of 40-GHz Detector and Module for the BICEP Array
