Comment on cluster analysis of radio loops in CMB data
Reuben Walter Ogburn
A recent article (Liu et al. 2014) looks for evidence in the WMAP internal linear combination map (ILC) of unmodeled emission from the galactic radio loop known as Loop I. The stat…
BICEP3: a 95 GHz refracting telescope for degree-scale CMB polarization
Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri, S. J. Benton +29
BICEP3 is a 550 mm-aperture refracting telescope for polarimetry of radiation in the cosmic microwave background at 95 GHz. It adopts the methodology of BICEP1, BICEP2 and the Keck…
BLASTbus electronics: general-purpose readout and control for balloon-borne experiments
S. J. Benton, P. A. Ade, M. Amiri +66
We present the second generation BLASTbus electronics. The primary purposes of this system are detector readout, attitude control, and cryogenic housekeeping, for balloon-borne tel…
BICEP2 II: Experiment and Three-Year Data Set
BICEP2 Collaboration, P. A. R Ade, R. W. Aikin +49
We report on the design and performance of the BICEP2 instrument and on its three-year data set. BICEP2 was designed to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background…
BICEP2 I: Detection Of B-mode Polarization at Degree Angular Scales
P. A. R Ade, R. W. Aikin, D. Barkats +44
(abridged for arXiv) We report results from the BICEP2 experiment, a cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarimeter specifically designed to search for the signal of inflationary gr…
