A cross-calibration approach for polarisation-sensitive detectors in CMB experiments: application to LiteBIRD's polarisation angle calibration

A. Novelli, F. Piacentini, S. Micheli +102

We present a cross-calibration algorithm that determines the relative calibration of detectors within the same frequency band of a CMB experiment. The method iteratively compares s…

Mitigating half-wave plate systematics at the map-making level: calibration requirements for LiteBIRD

N. Raffuzzi, A. Carones, M. Monelli +101

Although half-wave plates (HWPs) are becoming a popular choice of polarization modulators for cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments, their non-idealities can introduce syst…

LiteBIRD Science Goals and Forecasts. -mode Anomalies

A. J. Banday, C. Gimeno-Amo, P. Diego-Palazuelos +101

Various so-called anomalies have been found in both the WMAP and Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature data that exert a mild tension against the highly successful b…

LiteBIRD Science Goals and Forecasts: constraining isotropic cosmic birefringence

E. de la Hoz, P. Diego-Palazuelos, J. Errard +112

Cosmic birefringence (CB) is the rotation of the photons' linear polarisation plane during propagation. Such an effect is a tracer of parity-violating extensions of standard electr…

Requirements on the gain calibration for LiteBIRD polarisation data with blind component separation

F. Carralot, A. Carones, N. Krachmalnicoff +106

Future cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments are primarily targeting a detection of the primordial -mode polarisation. The faintness of this signal requires exquisite co…

Multi-dimensional optimisation of the scanning strategy for the LiteBIRD space mission

Y. Takase, L. Vacher, H. Ishino +105

Large angular scale surveys in the absence of atmosphere are essential for measuring the primordial -mode power spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). Since this pro…

Simulations of systematic effects arising from cosmic rays in the LiteBIRD space telescope, and effects on the measurements of CMB -modes

Samantha Lynn Stever, Tommaso Ghigna, Mayu Tominaga +12

Systematic effects arising from cosmic rays have been shown to be a significant threat to space telescopes using high-sensitivity bolometers. The LiteBIRD space mission aims to mea…

Detailed study of HWP non-idealities and their impact on future measurements of CMB polarization anisotropies from space

Serena Giardiello, Martina Gerbino, Luca Pagano +8

We study the propagation of a specific class of instrumental systematics to the reconstruction of the B-mode power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). We focus on th…
