The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Two-season ACTPol Extragalactic Point Sources and their Polarization properties

Rahul Datta, Simone Aiola, Steve K. Choi +30

We report on measurements of the polarization of extragalactic sources at 148 GHz made during the first two seasons of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope Polarization (ACTPol) survey.…

Measurement of the Splashback Feature around SZ-selected Galaxy Clusters with DES, SPT and ACT

T. Shin, S. Adhikari, E. J. Baxter +107

We present a detection of the splashback feature around galaxy clusters selected using their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) signal. Recent measurements of the splashback feature around op…

The Simons Observatory: Science goals and forecasts

The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Peter Ade, James Aguirre +247

The Simons Observatory (SO) is a new cosmic microwave background experiment being built on Cerro Toco in Chile, due to begin observations in the early 2020s. We describe the scient…

Statistical properties of paired fixed fields

Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro, Sigurd Naess, Shy Genel +6

The initial conditions of cosmological simulations are commonly drawn from a Gaussian ensemble. The limited number of modes inside a simulation volume gives rise to statistical flu…

Weak-Lensing Mass Calibration of ACTPol Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Clusters with the Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey

Hironao Miyatake, Nicholas Battaglia, Matt Hilton +57

We present weak-lensing measurements using the first-year data from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Strategic Survey Program on the Subaru telescope for eight galaxy clusters selected throug…
