Calibration of detector time constant with a thermal source for the POLARBEAR-2A CMB polarization experiment
S. Takatori, M. Hasegawa, M. Hazumi +22
The Simons Array (SA) project is a ground-based Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization experiment. The SA observes the sky using three telescopes, and POLARBEAR-2A (PB-2A)…
The POLARBEAR-2 and Simons Array Focal Plane Fabrication Status
B. Westbrook, P. A. R. Ade, M. Aguilar +90
We present on the status of POLARBEAR-2 A (PB2-A) focal plane fabrication. The PB2-A is the first of three telescopes in the Simon Array (SA), which is an array of three cosmic mic…
The POLARBEAR Fourier Transform Spectrometer Calibrator and Spectroscopic Characterization of the POLARBEAR Instrument
Frederick Matsuda, Lindsay Lowry, Aritoki Suzuki +25
We describe the Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) used for in-field testing of the POLARBEAR receiver, an experiment located in the Atacama Desert of Chile which measures the co…
Measurements of tropospheric ice clouds with a ground-based CMB polarization experiment, POLARBEAR
Satoru Takakura, Mario A. O. Aguilar-Faúndez, Yoshiki Akiba +45
The polarization of the atmosphere has been a long-standing concern for ground-based experiments targeting cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization. Ice crystals in upper tro…
Performance of a continuously rotating half-wave plate on the POLARBEAR telescope
Satoru Takakura, Mario Aguilar, Yoshiki Akiba +50
A continuously rotating half-wave plate (CRHWP) is a promising tool to improve the sensitivity to large angular scales in cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization measurement…
POLARBEAR-2: an instrument for CMB polarization measurements
Y. Inoue, P. Ade, Y. Akiba +83
POLARBEAR-2 (PB-2) is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiment that will be located in the Atacama highland in Chile at an altitude of 5200 m. Its science goals…
The POLARBEAR-2 and the Simons Array Experiment
A. Suzuki, P. Ade, Y. Akiba +86
We present an overview of the design and status of the \Pb-2 and the Simons Array experiments. \Pb-2 is a Cosmic Microwave Background polarimetry experiment which aims to character…
