Controlling instrumental systematics for the BICEP inflation survey

C. Vergès, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +92

The BICEP series of experiments has been observing CMB polarisation from the South Pole for over 20 years, with the goal of constraining inflationary gravitational waves. The upcom…

BICEP/Keck XXI: Constraints on Early-Universe Parity Violation from Multipole-Dependent Birefringence

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Zeeshan Ahmed +94

We present the first constraints on multipole-dependent cosmic birefringence using CMB polarization data from the BK18 dataset, which combines observations from BICEP2, Keck Array,…

BICEP/Keck XX: Component-separated maps of polarized CMB and thermal dust emission using Planck and BICEP/Keck Observations through the 2018 Observing Season

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +94

We present component-separated polarization maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and Galactic thermal dust emission, derived using data from the BICEP/Keck experiments thr…

Calibration Measurements of the BICEP3 and BICEP Array CMB Polarimeters from 2017 to 2024

Christos Giannakopoulos, Clara Vergès, P. A. R. Ade +83

The BICEP3 and BICEP Array polarimeters are small-aperture refracting telescopes located at the South Pole designed to measure primordial gravitational wave signatures in the Cosmi…

Constraining Inflation with the BICEP/Keck CMB Polarization Experiments

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84

The BICEP/ (BK) series of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiments has, over the past decade and a half, produced a series of field-leading constra…

BICEP / Keck XVII: Line of Sight Distortion Analysis: Estimates of Gravitational Lensing, Anisotropic Cosmic Birefringence, Patchy Reionization, and Systematic Errors

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +91

We present estimates of line-of-sight distortion fields derived from the 95 GHz and 150 GHz data taken by BICEP2, BICEP3, and Keck Array up to the 2018 observing season, leading to…

BICEP / Keck XIV: Improved constraints on axion-like polarization oscillations in the cosmic microwave background

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +89

We present an improved search for axion-like polarization oscillations in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) with observations from the Keck Array. An all-sky, temporally sinuso…
