Design and performance of dual-polarization lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors for millimeter-wave polarimetry
H. McCarrick, G. Jones, B. R. Johnson +11
Lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors (LEKIDs) are an attractive technology for millimeter-wave observations that require large arrays of extremely low-noise detectors. We de…
Intensity-Coupled-Polarization in Instruments with a Continuously Rotating Half-Wave Plate
Joy Didier, Amber D. Miller, Derek Araujo +31
We discuss a systematic effect associated with measuring polarization with a continuously rotating half-wave plate. The effect was identified with the data from the E and B Experim…
CMB-S4 Technology Book, First Edition
Maximilian H. Abitbol, Zeeshan Ahmed, Darcy Barron +58
CMB-S4 is a proposed experiment to map the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) to nearly the cosmic variance limit for angular scales that are accessible from the…
POLOCALC: a Novel Method to Measure the Absolute Polarization Orientation of the Cosmic Microwave Background
Federico Nati, Mark J. Devlin, Martina Gerbino +4
We describe a novel method to measure the absolute orientation of the polarization plane of the CMB with arcsecond accuracy, enabling unprecedented measurements for cosmology and f…
Prospects for Measuring Cosmic Microwave Background Spectral Distortions in the Presence of Foregrounds
Maximilian H. Abitbol, Jens Chluba, J. Colin Hill +1
Measurements of cosmic microwave background spectral distortions have profound implications for our understanding of physical processes taking place over a vast window in cosmologi…
The EBEX Balloon Borne Experiment - Optics, Receiver, and Polarimetry
The EBEX Collaboration, Asad M. Aboobaker, Peter Ade +35
The E and B Experiment (EBEX) was a long-duration balloon-borne cosmic microwave background polarimeter that flew over Antarctica in 2013. We describe the experiment's optical syst…
