Beyond the BLUE I: the advantage ceiling - how much can any estimator beat the matched filter in mm/submm survey data?
Kaustuv Basu
Papers claiming that convolutional neural networks outperform the matched filter are now common in astronomy. Since that filter is the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE) for any…
The CCAT-Prime Submillimeter Observatory
Manuel Aravena, Jason Austermann, Kaustuv Basu +53
The Cerro Chajnantor Atacama Telescope-prime (CCAT-prime) is a new 6-m, off-axis, low-emissivity, large field-of-view submillimeter telescope scheduled for first light in the last…
Sensitivity of the Prime-Cam Instrument on the CCAT-prime Telescope
Steve K. Choi, Jason Austermann, Kaustuv Basu +19
CCAT-prime is a new 6 m crossed Dragone telescope designed to characterize the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization and foregrounds, measure the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect…
The Atacama Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (AtLAST)
Pamela Klaassen, Tony Mroczkowski, Sean Bryan +13
The sub-mm sky is a unique window for probing the architecture of the Universe and structures within it. From the discovery of dusty sub-mm galaxies, to the ringed nature of protos…
Introducing constrained matched filters for improved separation of point sources from galaxy clusters
Jens Erler, Miriam E. Ramos-Ceja, Kaustuv Basu +1
Matched filters (MFs) are elegant and widely used tools to detect and measure signals that resemble a known template in noisy data. However, they can perform poorly in the presence…
Prime-Cam: A first-light instrument for the CCAT-prime telescope
Eve M. Vavagiakis, Zeeshan Ahmed, Aamir Ali +43
CCAT-prime will be a 6-meter aperture telescope operating from sub-mm to mm wavelengths, located at 5600 meters elevation on Cerro Chajnantor in the Atacama Desert in Chile. Its no…
Exploring Cosmic Origins with CORE: Survey requirements and mission design
J. Delabrouille, P. de Bernardis, F. R. Bouchet +200
Future observations of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarisation have the potential to answer some of the most fundamental questions of modern physics and cosmology. In this p…
The SKA Mid-frequency All-sky Continuum Survey: Discovering the unexpected and transforming radio-astronomy
Ray P. Norris, Kaustuv Basu, Michael Brown +5
We show that, in addition to specific science goals, there is a strong case for conducting an all-sky (i.e. the visible 3-pi steradians) SKA continuum survey which does not fit nea…
