Wideband 67-116 GHz receiver development for ALMA Band 2
P. Yagoubov, T. Mroczkowski, V. Belitsky +43
ALMA has been operating since 2011, but has not yet been populated with the full suite of intended frequency bands. In particular, ALMA Band 2 (67-90 GHz) is the final band in the…
The Simons Observatory: Astro2020 Decadal Project Whitepaper
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Shunsuke Adachi +280
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment sited on Cerro Toco in the Atacama Desert in Chile that promises to provide breakthrough…
Studies of Systematic Uncertainties for Simons Observatory: Polarization Modulator Related Effects
Maria Salatino, Jacob Lashner, Martina Gerbino +24
The Simons Observatory (SO) will observe the temperature and polarization anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) over a wide range of frequencies (27 to 270 GHz) and…
Pushing the Limits of Broadband and High Frequency Metamaterial Silicon Antireflection Coatings
K. P. Coughlin, J. J. McMahon, K. T. Crowley +4
Broadband refractive optics realized from high index materials provide compelling design solutions for the next generation of observatories for the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB…
Composite Reflective/Absorptive IR-Blocking Filters Embedded in Metamaterial Antireflection Coated Silicon
C. D. Munson, S. K. Choi, K. P. Coughlin +4
Infrared (IR) blocking filters are crucial for controlling the radiative loading on cryogenic systems and for optimizing the sensitivity of bolometric detectors in the far-IR. We p…
Optical modeling and polarization calibration for CMB measurements with ACTPol and Advanced ACTPol
Brian Koopman, Jason Austermann, Hsiao-Mei Cho +21
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope Polarimeter (ACTPol) is a polarization sensitive upgrade to the Atacama Cosmology Telescope. Located at an elevation of 5190 m, ACTPol measures the…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: The polarization-sensitive ACTPol instrument
R. J. Thornton, P. A. R. Ade, S. Aiola +53
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) is designed to make high angular resolution measurements of anisotropies in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at millimeter wavelengths. W…
Design and Deployment of a Multichroic Polarimeter Array on the Atacama Cosmology Telescope
R. Datta, J. Austermann, J. A. Beall +28
We present the design and the preliminary on sky performance with respect to beams and pass-bands of a multichroic polarimeter array covering the 90 and 146 GHz Cosmic Microwave Ba…
Advanced ACTPol Cryogenic Detector Arrays and Readout
S. W. Henderson, R. Allison, J. Austermann +54
Advanced ACTPol is a polarization-sensitive upgrade for the 6 m aperture Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT), adding new frequencies and increasing sensitivity over the previous ACTP…
