The Simons Observatory: Frequency-resolved beam calibration for the SO SATs with POLOCALC
Nadia Dachlythra, Gabriele Coppi, Ludovico Bizzarri +30
We present a far-field beam calibration of the Simons Observatory (SO) Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) using scanned single-frequency measurements of a drone-mounted source emitti…
The Simons Observatory: Design and Initial Performance of the Detector Readout System for the Large-Aperture Telescope
Thomas P. Satterthwaite, Tristan Pinsonneault-Marotte, Shawn W. Henderson +34
We present the design, implementation, and initial performance of a highly multiplexed cryogenic superconducting detector readout system in the context of its deployment to the Sim…

The Simons Observatory (SO) is a cosmic microwave background experiment composed of three 0.42 m Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) and one 6 m Large Aperture Telescope (LAT) in the…
The Simons Observatory: Studies of Detector Yield and Readout Noise From the First Large-Scale Deployment of Microwave Multiplexing at the Large Aperture Telescope
Thomas P. Satterthwaite, Zeeshan Ahmed, Kyuyoung Bae +21
The Simons Observatory is a new ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment, which is currently being commissioned in Chile's Atacama Desert. During its survey, the observa…
Simons Observatory: Pre-deployment Performance of a Large Aperture Telescope Optics Tube in the 90 and 150 GHz Spectral Bands
Carlos E. Sierra, Kathleen Harrington, Shreya Sutariya +42
The Simons Observatory will map the temperature and polarization over half of the sky, at millimeter wavelengths in six spectral bands from the Atacama Desert in Chile. These data…
maria: A novel simulator for forecasting (sub-)mm observations
J. van Marrewijk, T. W. Morris, T. Mroczkowski +8
Millimeter-wave single-dish telescopes offer two key advantages compared to interferometers: they can efficiently map larger portions of the sky, and they can recover larger spatia…
