The SPT-3G+ receiver design

H. Athreya, Z. Ahmed, J. E. Austermann +71

We present the thermo-mechanical design of the cryostat and camera optics for SPT-3G+, a new receiver being developed for the South Pole Telescope (SPT). The receiver consists of 1…

Picture an Astronomer: Best Practices for Retaining Talent in Astrophysics

Ava Polzin, Katherine E. Whitaker, C. Megan Urry +85

Women are consistently underrepresented in astrophysics yet are simultaneously subject to disproportionate attrition at every career stage. This disparity between demonstrated effi…

Pointing Accuracy Improvements for the South Pole Telescope with Machine Learning

P. M. Chichura, A. Rahlin, A. J. Anderson +93

We present improvements to the pointing accuracy of the South Pole Telescope (SPT) using machine learning. The ability of the SPT to point accurately at the sky is limited by its s…

Development of an MKID frequency-to-pixel LED mapper for SPT-3G+

E. S. Martsen, P. S. Barry, B. A. Benson +5

SPT-3G+ is the next-generation camera for the South Pole Telescope (SPT). SPT is designed to measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the mm/sub-mm sky. The planned focal…

Detection of Thermal Emission at Millimeter Wavelengths from Low-Earth Orbit Satellites

A. Foster, A. Chokshi, A. J. Anderson +88

The detection of artificial satellite thermal emission at millimeter wavelengths is presented using data from the 3rd-Generation receiver on the South Pole Telescope (SPT-3G). This…

On-sky performance of the SPT-3G frequency-domain multiplexed readout

A. N. Bender, A. J. Anderson, J. S. Avva +86

Frequency-domain multiplexing (fMux) is an established technique for the readout of large arrays of transition edge sensor (TES) bolometers. Each TES in a multiplexing module has a…
