The Balloon-Borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope Observatory
Ian Lowe, Gabriele Coppi, Peter A. R. Ade +30
The BLAST Observatory is a proposed superpressure balloon-borne polarimeter designed for a future ultra-long duration balloon campaign from Wanaka, New Zealand. To maximize scienti…
BeyondPlanck II. CMB map-making through Gibbs sampling
E. Keihänen, A. -S. Suur-Uski, K. J. Andersen +37
We present a Gibbs sampling solution to the map-making problem for CMB measurements, building on existing destriping methodology. Gibbs sampling breaks the computationally heavy de…
BeyondPlanck XV. Polarized foreground emission between 30 and 70 GHz
T. L. Svalheim, K. J. Andersen, R. Aurlien +35
We constrain polarized foreground emission between 30 and 70 GHz with the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) and WMAP data within the global Bayesian BeyondPlanck framework. We…
BeyondPlanck VII. Bayesian estimation of gain and absolute calibration for CMB experiments
E. Gjerløw, H. T. Ihle, S. Galeotta +35
We present a Bayesian calibration algorithm for CMB observations as implemented within the global end-to-end BeyondPlanck (BP) framework, and apply this to the Planck Low Frequency…
Excitation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) Emission: Dependence on Size Distribution, Ionization, and Starlight Spectrum and Intensity
B. T. Draine, Aigen Li, Brandon S. Hensley +3
Using physical models, we study the sensitivity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission spectra to the character of the illuminating starlight, to the PAH size distributi…
BeyondPlanck VI. Noise characterization and modelling
H. T. Ihle, M. Bersanelli, C. Franceschet +38
We present a Bayesian method for estimating instrumental noise parameters and propagating noise uncertainties within the global BeyondPlanck Gibbs sampling framework, and apply thi…
BeyondPlanck I. Global Bayesian analysis of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument data
BeyondPlanck Collaboration, K. J. Andersen, R. Aurlien +42
We describe the BeyondPlanck project in terms of motivation, methodology and main products, and provide a guide to a set of companion papers that describe each result in fuller det…
Resolved spectral variations of the centimetre-wavelength continuum from the rho Oph W photo-dissociation-region
Simon Casassus, Matias Vidal, Carla Arce-Tord +5
Cm-wavelength radio continuum emission in excess of free-free, synchrotron and Rayleigh-Jeans dust emission (excess microwave emission, EME), and often called `anomalous microwave…
The Dielectric Function of "Astrodust" and Predictions for Polarization in the 3.4m and 10m Features
B. T. Draine, Brandon S. Hensley
The dielectric function of interstellar dust material is modeled using observations of extinction and polarization in the infrared, together with estimates for the mass of interste…
Observational Constraints on the Physical Properties of Interstellar Dust in the Post-Planck Era
Brandon S. Hensley, B. T. Draine
We present a synthesis of the astronomical observations constraining the wavelength-dependent extinction, emission, and polarization from interstellar dust from UV to microwave wav…
CMB-S4: Forecasting Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves
S4 Collaboration, Kevork Abazajian, Graeme E. Addison +233
CMB-S4---the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment---is set to significantly advance the sensitivity of CMB measurements and enhance our underst…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: A Measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background Power Spectra at 98 and 150 GHz
Steve K. Choi, Matthew Hasselfield, Shuay-Pwu Patty Ho +136
We present the temperature and polarization angular power spectra of the CMB measured by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) from 5400 deg of the 2013-2016 survey, which cove…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR4 Maps and Cosmological Parameters
Simone Aiola, Erminia Calabrese, Loïc Maurin +138
We present new arcminute-resolution maps of the Cosmic Microwave Background temperature and polarization anisotropy from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope, using data taken from 2013…
Detection of PAH Absorption and Determination of the Mid-Infrared Diffuse Interstellar Extinction Curve from the Sightline Toward Cyg OB2-12
Brandon S. Hensley, B. T. Draine
The sightline toward the luminous blue hypergiant Cyg OB2-12 is widely used in studying interstellar dust on account of its large extinction ( mag) and the fact that…
