Status of BICEP Array and Integration of the 220/270 GHz Receiver
A. Steiger, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83
Measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background are critical for modern cosmology as they constrain the physics of the early universe and cosmic inflation. BICE…
BICEP/Keck XIX: Extremely Thin Composite Polymer Vacuum Windows for BICEP and Other High Throughput Millimeter Wave Telescopes
Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +90
Millimeter-wave refracting telescopes targeting the degree-scale structure of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have recently grown to diffraction-limited apertures of over 0.5…
Development of the 220/270 GHz Receiver of BICEP Array
Keck Collaboration, Y. Nakato, P. A. R. Ade +82
Measurements of B-mode polarization in the CMB sourced from primordial gravitational waves would provide information on the energy scale of inflation and its potential form. To ach…
Ultra-Thin Large-Aperture Vacuum Windows for Millimeter Wavelengths Receivers
Denis Barkats, Marion I. Dierickx, John M. Kovac +75
Targeting faint polarization patterns arising from Primordial Gravitational Waves in the Cosmic Microwave Background requires excellent observational sensitivity. Optical elements…
2017 upgrade and performance of BICEP3: a 95GHz refracting telescope for degree-scale CMB polarization
Jae Hwan Kang, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +74
BICEP3 is a 520mm aperture on-axis refracting telescope observing the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at 95GHz in search of the B-mode signal originating from…
