Constraints on Cosmology from the Cosmic Microwave Background Power Spectrum of the 2500 SPT-SZ Survey

Z. Hou, C. L. Reichardt, K. T. Story +49

We explore extensions to the CDM cosmology using measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the recent SPT-SZ survey, along with data from WMAP7 and measurements…

Feedhorn-coupled TES polarimeter camera modules at 150 GHz for CMB polarization measurements with SPTpol

J. W. Henning, P. Ade, K. A. Aird +58

The SPTpol camera is a dichroic polarimetric receiver at 90 and 150 GHz. Deployed in January 2012 on the South Pole Telescope (SPT), SPTpol is looking for faint polarization signal…

Design and characterization of 90 GHz feedhorn-coupled TES polarimeter pixels in the SPTpol camera

J. T. Sayre, P. Ade, K. A. Aird +58

The SPTpol camera is a two-color, polarization-sensitive bolometer receiver, and was installed on the 10 meter South Pole Telescope in January 2012. SPTpol is designed to study the…

A Massive, Cooling-Flow-Induced Starburst in the Core of a Highly Luminous Galaxy Cluster

M. McDonald, M. Bayliss, B. A. Benson +83

In the cores of some galaxy clusters the hot intracluster plasma is dense enough that it should cool radiatively in the cluster's lifetime, leading to continuous "cooling flows" of…
