The Simons Observatory: pipeline comparison and validation for large-scale B-modes

K. Wolz, S. Azzoni, C. Hervias-Caimapo +14

The upcoming Simons Observatory Small Aperture Telescopes aim at achieving a constraint on the primordial tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ at the level of $I ¨ (r = 0) ≲ 0.003$ , observi…

Inference of the optical depth to reionization $I ¨ $ from $Planck$ CMB maps with convolutional neural networks

Kevin Wolz, Nicoletta Krachmalnicoff, Luca Pagano

The optical depth to reionization, $I ¨ $ , is the least constrained parameter of the cosmological $I^$ CDM model. To date, its most precise value is inferred from large-scale polarize…

The Simons Observatory: Beam characterization for the Small Aperture Telescopes

Nadia Dachlythra, Adriaan J. Duivenvoorden, Jon E. Gudmundsson +27

We use time-domain simulations of Jupiter observations to test and develop a beam reconstruction pipeline for the Simons Observatory Small Aperture Telescopes. The method relies on…
