The Simons Observatory: Commissioning of the Mid-Frequency Small Aperture Telescopes
Kathleen Harrington, Remington Gerras, Nicholas Galitzki +88
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) survey experiment observing from an altitude of 5,200 m in the Atacama Desert in Chile. The SO Small Aperture Tel…
The Simons Observatory: Overview of the Cryogenic Half-wave Plate Polarization Modulators
Junna Sugiyama, Kyohei Yamada, Bryce Bixler +5
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a ground-based Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiment that is located in the Atacama plateau. The Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) of SO are op…
The Simons Observatory: Rotation Performance of Cryogenic Half-Wave Plate Polarization Modulators
Kyohei Yamada, Bryce Bixler, Junna Sugiyama +10
We present the on-site rotation performance of the first three cryogenic continuously rotating half-wave plate (HWP) polarization modulators for the Simons Observatory small apertu…
The Simons Observatory: On-sky performance of radio-transparent multi-layer insulation (RT-MLI) using Styroace-II Styrofoam
Samuel Day-Weiss, Nicholas Galitzki, Atsuto Takeuchi +14
We present the on-sky performance of a Radio-Transparent Multi-Layer Insulation filter (RT-MLI) that uses Styroace-II styrofoam to reject ambient thermal radiation from entering a…
