The Thermal Design, Characterization, and Performance of the SPIDER Long-Duration Balloon Cryostat
J. E. Gudmundsson, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +40
We describe the SPIDER flight cryostat, which is designed to cool six millimeter-wavelength telescopes during an Antarctic long-duration balloon flight. The cryostat, one of the la…
Antenna-coupled TES bolometers used in BICEP2, Keck array, and SPIDER
P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin, M. Amiri +64
We have developed antenna-coupled transition-edge sensor (TES) bolometers for a wide range of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarimetry experiments, including BICEP2, Keck Arra…
BICEP2 III: Instrumental Systematics
BICEP2 Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin +42
In a companion paper we have reported a detection of degree scale -mode polarization at 150 GHz by the BICEP2 experiment. Here we provide a detailed study of potential in…
BICEP2/Keck Array IV: Optical Characterization and Performance of the BICEP2 and Keck Array Experiments
The BICEP2, Keck Array Collaborations, : +51
BICEP2 and the Keck Array are polarization-sensitive microwave telescopes that observe the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the South Pole at degree angular scales in search…
