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…
The Effects of Bandpass Variations on Foreground Removal Forecasts for Future CMB Experiments
J. T. Ward, D. Alonso, J. Errard +2
Time-dependent and systematic variations in band gain and central frequencies of instruments used to study the Cosmic Microwave Background are important factors in the data-to-map…
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…
Readout of two-kilopixel transition-edge sensor arrays for Advanced ACTPol
Shawn W. Henderson, Jason R. Stevens, Mandana Amiri +30
Advanced ACTPol is an instrument upgrade for the six-meter Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) designed to measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization…
Mechanical design and development of TES bolometer detector arrays for the Advanced ACTPol experiment
Jonathan T. Ward, Jason Austermann, James A. Beall +27
The next generation Advanced ACTPol (AdvACT) experiment is currently underway and will consist of four Transition Edge Sensor (TES) bolometer arrays, with three operating together,…
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…
