Two-year Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) Observations: 40 GHz Telescope Pointing, Beam Profile, Window Function, and Polarization Performance
Zhilei Xu, Michael K. Brewer, Pedro Fluxá Rojas +33
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is a telescope array that observes the cosmic microwave background (CMB) over 75% of the sky from the Atacama Desert, Chile, at f…
Nowcasting the turbulence at the Paranal Observatory
J. Milli, R. Gonzalez, P. R. Fluxa +13
At Paranal Observatory, the least predictable parameter affecting the short-term scheduling of astronomical observations is the optical turbulence, especially the seeing, coherence…
Pixel space convolution for cosmic microwave background experiments
P. Fluxá, M. K. Brewer, R. Dünner
Cosmic microwave background experiments have experienced an exponential increase in complexity, data size and sensitivity. One of the goals of current and future experiments is to…

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…
On-sky performance of the CLASS Q-band telescope
John W. Appel, Zhilei Xu, Ivan L. Padilla +34
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is mapping the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at large angular scales () in search of a…
The Simons Observatory: Science goals and forecasts
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Peter Ade, James Aguirre +247
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a new cosmic microwave background experiment being built on Cerro Toco in Chile, due to begin observations in the early 2020s. We describe the scient…
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor Receiver Design
