KID Detector Readout Electronics Development for Habitable Worlds Observatory
Sean Bryan, Hugh Barnaby, Oketa Basha +15
We present the status and goals of the readout electronics system we are developing to support the detector arrays in the coronagraph instrument on the NASA Habitable Worlds Observ…
High-Efficiency and Low-Noise Detectors for the Upgraded CLASS 90 GHz Focal Plane
Carolina Núñez, John W. Appel, Rahul Datta +22
We present the in-lab and on-sky performance for the upgraded 90 GHz focal plane of the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS), which had four of its seven detector wafers…
A Measurement of the Largest-Scale CMB E-mode Polarization with CLASS
Yunyang Li, Joseph Eimer, John Appel +34
We present measurements of large-scale cosmic microwave background (CMB) E-mode polarization from the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) 90 GHz data. Using 115 det-yr o…
Vibrational modes as the origin of dielectric loss at 0.27$\unicode{x2013}$100 THz in a-SiC:H
B. T. Buijtendorp, A. Endo, W. Jellema +9
Low-loss deposited dielectrics are beneficial for the advancement of superconducting integrated circuits for astronomy. In the microwave band (1$\unicode{x2013}$10 G…
