Scientific verification of Faraday Rotation Modulators: Detection of diffuse polarized Galactic emission

S. Moyerman, E. Bierman, P. A. R. Ade +28

The design and performance of a wide bandwidth linear polarization modulator based on the Faraday effect is described. Faraday Rotation Modulators (FRMs) are solid-state polarizati…

Antenna-coupled TES bolometers for the Keck Array, Spider, and Polar-1

R. O'Brient, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +50

Between the BICEP2 and Keck Array experiments, we have deployed over 1500 dual polarized antenna coupled bolometers to map the Cosmic Microwave Background's polarization. We have b…

Optical Characterization of the Keck Array Polarimeter at the South Pole

A. G. Vieregg, P. A. R. Ade, R. Aikin +37

The Keck Array (SPUD) is a set of microwave polarimeters that observes from the South Pole at degree angular scales in search of a signature of Inflation imprinted as B-mode polari…

BICEP2 and Keck Array operational overview and status of observations

R. W. Ogburn, P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin +50

The BICEP2 and Keck Array experiments are designed to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) on angular scales of 2-4 degrees (l=50-100). This is the reg…

HerMES: Cosmic Infrared Background Anisotropies and the Clustering of Dusty Star-Forming Galaxies

M. P. Viero, L. Wang, M. Zemcov +51

We present measurements of the auto- and cross-frequency power spectra of the cosmic infrared background (CIB) at 250, 350, and 500um (1200, 860, and 600 GHz) from observations tot…

HerMES: Candidate Gravitationally Lensed Galaxies and Lensing Statistics at Submillimeter Wavelengths

Julie L. Wardlow, Asantha Cooray, Francesco De Bernardis +83

We present a list of 13 candidate gravitationally lensed submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) from 95 square degrees of the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey, a surface density o…

High Spectral Resolution Measurement of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Null with Z-Spec

M. Zemcov, J. Aguirre, J. Bock +15

The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect spectrum crosses through a null where dT_CMB = 0 near nu_0 = 217 GHz. In a cluster of galaxies, nu_0 can be shifted from the canonical thermal SZ…
