280 GHz Focal Plane Unit Design and Characterization for the SPIDER-2 Suborbital Polarimeter
A. S. Bergman, P. A. R. Ade, S. Akers +76
We describe the construction and characterization of the 280 GHz bolometric focal plane units (FPUs) to be deployed on the second flight of the balloon-borne SPIDER instrument. The…
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…
Development of Multi-Chroic MKIDs for Next-Generation CMB Polarization Studies
B. R. Johnson, D. Flanigan, M. H. Abitbol +17
We report on the status of an ongoing effort to develop arrays of horn-coupled, polarization-sensitive microwave kinetic inductance detectors (MKIDs) that are each sensitive to two…
Microwave SQUID Multiplexer demonstration for Cosmic Microwave Background Imagers
B. Dober, D. T. Becker, D. A. Bennett +10
Key performance characteristics are demonstrated for the microwave SQUID multiplexer (MUX) coupled to transition edge sensor (TES) bolometers that have been optimized for cosmic…
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…
Measuring Reionization, Neutrino Mass, and Cosmic Inflation with BFORE
Sean Bryan, Peter Ade, J. Richard Bond +21
BFORE is a NASA high-altitude ultra-long-duration balloon mission proposed to measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) across half the sky during a 28-day mid-latitude flight…
