Status of BICEP Array and Integration of the 220/270 GHz Receiver

A. Steiger, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83

Measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background are critical for modern cosmology as they constrain the physics of the early universe and cosmic inflation. BICE…

Quantifying the systematic impact of differential beam response on the BICEP CMB polarization data from 2016 through 2024

B. D. Elwood, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83

As cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiments, including BICEP3, BICEP Array, and future BICEP experiments, achieve ever-deeper polarization maps in search of primo…

Optics and broadband anti-reflection coatings for the BA4-90/150 receiver

A. R. Polish, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84

The BICEP Array telescopes search for primordial B-mode polarization from inflationary gravitational waves. This signal is exceedingly faint, demanding excellent map depth and syst…

BICEP/Keck XXI: Constraints on Early-Universe Parity Violation from Multipole-Dependent Birefringence

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Zeeshan Ahmed +94

We present the first constraints on multipole-dependent cosmic birefringence using CMB polarization data from the BK18 dataset, which combines observations from BICEP2, Keck Array,…

Improved Absolute Polarization Calibrator for BICEP CMB Polarimeters

A. R. Polish, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +89

Cosmic birefringence is a hypothesized parity violation in electromagnetism that predicts a frequency-independent polarization rotation as light propagates. This would rotate the l…

BICEP/Keck XIX: Extremely Thin Composite Polymer Vacuum Windows for BICEP and Other High Throughput Millimeter Wave Telescopes

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +90

Millimeter-wave refracting telescopes targeting the degree-scale structure of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have recently grown to diffraction-limited apertures of over 0.5…

BICEP/Keck XVIII: Measurement of BICEP3 polarization angles and consequences for constraining cosmic birefringence and inflation

Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +83

We use a custom-made calibrator to measure individual detectors' polarization angles of BICEP3, a small aperture telescope observing the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at 95GHz…

Calibration Measurements of the BICEP3 and BICEP Array CMB Polarimeters from 2017 to 2024

Christos Giannakopoulos, Clara Vergès, P. A. R. Ade +83

The BICEP3 and BICEP Array polarimeters are small-aperture refracting telescopes located at the South Pole designed to measure primordial gravitational wave signatures in the Cosmi…
