The Simons Observatory: Frequency-resolved beam calibration for the SO SATs with POLOCALC
Nadia Dachlythra, Gabriele Coppi, Ludovico Bizzarri +30
We present a far-field beam calibration of the Simons Observatory (SO) Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) using scanned single-frequency measurements of a drone-mounted source emitti…
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…
High-accuracy polarimetry for CMB: new frontiers with the POLOCALC project
A. Novelli, F. Astori, L. Bizzarri +8
Modern telescopes observing the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization require an exquisite control of systematics to target Inflationary Gravitational Waves (IGW), Cosmic…
Intracluster Medium Fluctuations on Scales up to 1 Mpc: A Combined eROSITA and SPT/Planck Analysis of Abell 3266
H. Saxena, A. Heinrich, J. Sayers +22
Galaxy clusters form through hierarchical assembly, where smaller substructures merge to build the largest gravitationally bound objects in the universe. These mergers, combined wi…
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…
