BICEP/Keck XXII: Analysis of the South Pole Atmosphere for CMB Observations

P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri +92

The South Pole is among the driest sites on Earth, and the resulting high atmospheric transparency makes it an excellent site for millimeter-wave astronomical observations. Neverth…

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 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…

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 XVI: Characterizing Dust Polarization through Correlations with Neutral Hydrogen

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +92

We characterize Galactic dust filaments by correlating BICEP/Keck and Planck data with polarization templates based on neutral hydrogen (H I) observations. Dust polarization is imp…

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…

Polarization Calibration of the BICEP3 CMB polarimeter at the South Pole

J. Cornelison, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84

The BICEP3 CMB Polarimeter is a small-aperture refracting telescope located at the South Pole and is specifically designed to search for the possible signature of inflationary grav…

A Demonstration of Improved Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves with Delensing

BICEP/Keck, SPTpol Collaborations, : +139

We present a constraint on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, , derived from measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization -modes with "delensing," whereby the unce…

BICEP2 / Keck Array VI: Improved Constraints On Cosmology and Foregrounds When Adding 95 GHz Data From Keck Array

Keck Array, BICEP2 Collaborations, : +60

We present results from an analysis of all data taken by the BICEP2 & Keck Array CMB polarization experiments up to and including the 2014 observing season. This includes the first…
