Polarimetry at millimeter wavelengths with the NIKA camera: calibration and performance
A. Ritacco, N. Ponthieu, A. Catalano +37
Magnetic fields, which play a major role in a large number of astrophysical processes from galactic to cosmological scales, can be traced via observations of dust polarization as d…
Polarization Sensitive Multi-Chroic MKIDs
Bradley R. Johnson, Daniel Flanigan, Maximilian H. Abitbol +18
We report on the development of scalable prototype microwave kinetic inductance detector (MKID) arrays tailored for future multi-kilo-pixel experiments that are designed to simulta…
Development of dual-polarization LEKIDs for CMB observations
Heather McCarrick, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Peter A. R. Ade +14
We discuss the design considerations and initial measurements from arrays of dual-polarization, lumped element kinetic inductance detectors (LEKIDs) nominally designed for cosmic m…
Lumped Element Kinetic Inductance Detectors for space applications
Alessandro Monfardini, Jochem Baselmans, Alain Benoit +12
Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID) are now routinely used in ground-based telescopes. Large arrays, deployed in formats up to kilopixels, exhibit state-of-the-art performance at mi…
The NIKA2 commissioning campaign: performance and first results
A. Catalano, R. Adam, P. Ade +39
The New IRAM KID Array 2 (NIKA 2) is a dual-band camera operating with three frequency-multiplexed kilopixels arrays of Lumped Element Kinetic Inductance Detectors (LEKID) cooled a…
The NIKA2 instrument, a dual-band kilopixel KID array for millimetric astronomy
M. Calvo, A. Benoit, A. Catalano +45
NIKA2 (New IRAM KID Array 2) is a camera dedicated to millimeter wave astronomy based upon kilopixel arrays of Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID). The pathfinder instrument, NIKA,…
