BICEP/Keck XXII: Analysis of the South Pole Atmosphere for CMB Observations

P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri +92

The South Pole is among the driest sites on Earth, and the resulting high atmospheric transparency makes it an excellent site for millimeter-wave astronomical observations. Neverth…

Optical characterization of the BICEP array 150 and 220/270GHz CMB polarimeters in the 2026 season

M. Izquierdo Poza, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +82

BICEP Array (BA) is the current-generation instrument in the BICEP series of small-aperture, on-axis refracting telescopes at the South Pole, designed to constrain the tensor-to-sc…

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 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…

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…

Results and Limits of Time Division Multiplexing for the BICEP Array High Frequency Receivers

S. Fatigoni, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84

Time-Division Multiplexing is the readout architecture of choice for many ground and space experiments, as it is a very mature technology with proven outstanding low-frequency nois…
