Receiver development for BICEP Array, a next-generation CMB polarimeter at the South Pole

L. Moncelsi, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +72

A detection of curl-type (-mode) polarization of the primary CMB would be direct evidence for the inflationary paradigm of the origin of the Universe. The BICEP/Keck Array (BK)…

A Demonstration of Improved Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves with Delensing

BICEP/Keck, SPTpol Collaborations, : +139

We present a constraint on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, , derived from measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization -modes with "delensing," whereby the unce…

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…

Optical Design and Characterization of 40-GHz Detector and Module for the BICEP Array

A. Soliman, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +66

Families of cosmic inflation models predict a primordial gravitational-wave background that imprints B-mode polarization pattern in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). High sens…

Characterizing the Sensitivity of 40 GHz TES Bolometers for BICEP Array

C. Zhang, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +66

The BICEP/Keck (BK) experiment aims to detect the imprint of primordial gravitational waves in the Cosmic Microwave Background polarization, which would be direct evidence of the i…

Optical characterization of the Keck Array and BICEP3 CMB Polarimeters from 2016 to 2019

Keck Collaboration, T. St Germaine, P. A. R. Ade +71

The BICEP/Keck experiment (BK) is a series of small-aperture refracting telescopes observing degree-scale Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization from the South Pole in sear…
