Antenna-coupled TES bolometer arrays for CMB polarimetry
C. L. Kuo, J. J. Bock, J. A. Bonetti +14
We describe the design and performance of polarization selective antenna-coupled TES arrays that will be used in several upcoming Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiments: SPI…
Galaxy Cluster Astrophysics and Cosmology: Questions and Opportunities for the Coming Decade
S. T. Myers, C. Pfrommer, J. Aguirre +21
We are learning much about how structure forms, in particular how clusters as nodes in the cosmic web evolve and accrete matter, and about the physical processes within these objec…
SPIDER: A Balloon-borne Large-scale CMB Polarimeter
B. P. Crill, P. A. R. Ade, E. S. Battistelli +34
Spider is a balloon-borne experiment that will measure the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background over a large fraction of a sky at 1 degree resolution. Six monochromatic…
The AzTEC mm-Wavelength Camera
G. W. Wilson, J. E. Austermann, T. A. Perera +13
AzTEC is a mm-wavelength bolometric camera utilizing 144 silicon nitride micromesh detectors. Herein we describe the AzTEC instrument architecture and its use as an astronomical in…
Spider Optimization: Probing the Systematics of a Large Scale B-Mode Experiment
C. J. MacTavish, P. A. R. Ade, E. S. Battistelli +31
Spider is a long-duration, balloon-borne polarimeter designed to measure large scale Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization with very high sensitivity and control of system…
Bolocam Survey for 1.1 mm Dust Continuum Emission in the c2d Legacy Clouds. II. Ophiuchus
K. E. Young, M. L. Enoch, N. J. Evans +10
We present a large-scale millimeter continuum map of the Ophiuchus molecular cloud. Nearly 11 square degrees, including all of the area in the cloud with visual extinction more tha…
