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,…
Fast computation of temperature and polarization coupling matrices
Georgia Kiddier, Steven Gratton
We present a fast and exact method for computing CMB mode-coupling matrices based on an optimised evaluation of Wigner-3j symbols. The method exploits analytic structure in the rel…
The Simons Observatory: Science Goals and Forecasts for the Enhanced Large Aperture Telescope
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, M. Abitbol, I. Abril-Cabezas +419
We describe updated scientific goals for the wide-field, millimeter-wave survey that will be produced by the Simons Observatory (SO). Significant upgrades to the 6-meter SO Large A…
Filtering in CMB data analysis with application to ACT DR4 and Planck observations
Erik Rosenberg, Steven Gratton, Anthony Challinor
Motivated by observed discrepancies between the Atacama Cosmology Telescope Data Release 4 (ACT DR4) and Planck 2018 cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy power spectra, par…
