Comparing complex impedance and bias step measurements of Simons Observatory transition edge sensors
Nicholas F. Cothard, Aamir M. Ali, Jason E. Austermann +16
The Simons Observatory (SO) will perform ground-based observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) with several small and large aperture telescopes, each outfitted with th…
The Simons Observatory: the Large Aperture Telescope Receiver (LATR) Integration and Validation Results
Zhilei Xu, Tanay Bhandarkar, Gabriele Coppi +42
The Simons Observatory (SO) will observe the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from Cerro Toco in the Atacama Desert of Chile. The observatory consists of three 0.5 m Small Apertur…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Detection of mm-wave transient sources
Sigurd Naess, Nick Battaglia, J. Richard Bond +29
We report on the serendipitous discovery of three transient mm-wave sources using data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope. The first, detected at RA = 273.8138, dec = -49.4628 at…
The Simons Observatory: Modeling Optical Systematics in the Large Aperture Telescope
Jon E. Gudmundsson, Patricio A. Gallardo, Roberto Puddu +35
We present geometrical and physical optics simulation results for the Simons Observatory Large Aperture Telescope. This work was developed as part of the general design process for…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR5 maps of 18,000 square degrees of the microwave sky from ACT 2008-2018 data
Sigurd Naess, Simone Aiola, Jason E. Austermann +59
This paper presents a maximum-likelihood algorithm for combining sky maps with disparate sky coverage, angular resolution and spatially varying anisotropic noise into a single map…
Characterization of Transition Edge Sensors for the Simons Observatory
Jason R. Stevens, Nicholas F. Cothard, Eve M. Vavagiakis +31
The Simons Observatory is building both large (6 m) and small (0.5 m) aperture telescopes in the Atacama desert in Chile to observe the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation…
