Detectors for CLASS-W2: The second 90 GHz telescope of the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor
John W. Appel, Kyuyoung Bae, Charles L. Bennett +26
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is measuring the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization anisotropy on the largest angular scales (>1 degree) to probe the…
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…
Design and characterization of a 60-cm reflective half-wave plate for the CLASS 90 GHz band telescope
Rui Shi, Michael K. Brewer, Carol Yan Yan Chan +14
Front-end polarization modulation enables improved polarization measurement stability by modulating the targeted signal above the low-frequency drifts associated with atmosph…
CLASS Observations of Atmospheric Cloud Polarization at Millimeter Wavelengths
Yunyang Li, John W. Appel, Charles L. Bennett +21
The dynamic atmosphere imposes challenges to ground-based cosmic microwave background observation, especially for measurements on large angular scales. The hydrometeors in the atmo…
Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS): 90 GHz Telescope Pointing, Beam Profile, Window Function, and Polarization Performance
Rahul Datta, Michael K. Brewer, Jullianna Denes Couto +31
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is a telescope array that observes the cosmic microwave background (CMB) over ~75% of the sky from the Atacama Desert, Chile, at…
Construction of a Large Diameter Reflective Half-Wave Plate Modulator for Millimeter Wave Applications
Joseph R. Eimer, Michael K. Brewer, David T. Chuss +14
Polarization modulation is a powerful technique to increase the stability of measurements by enabling the distinction of a polarized signal from dominant slow system drifts and unp…
Design and characterization of new 90 GHz detectors for the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS)
Carolina Núñez, John W. Appel, Sarah Marie Bruno +20
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is a polarization-sensitive telescope array located at an altitude of 5,200 m in the Chilean Atacama Desert. CLASS is designed to…
Long-Timescale Stability in CMB Observations at Multiple Frequencies using Front-End Polarization Modulation
Joseph Cleary, Rahul Datta, John W. Appel +17
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is a telescope array observing the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at frequency bands centered near 40, 90, 150, and 220 GHz. C…
