The Simons Observatory: Frequency-resolved beam calibration for the SO SATs with POLOCALC
Nadia Dachlythra, Gabriele Coppi, Ludovico Bizzarri +30
We present a far-field beam calibration of the Simons Observatory (SO) Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) using scanned single-frequency measurements of a drone-mounted source emitti…

Combining Systematic Effects in CMB Polarization Experiments through map-based simulations: application to LiteBIRD's HWP non-idealities and detectors non-linearity
Silvia Micheli, Francesco Piacentini, Tommaso Ghigna +10
We quantify the impact of coupled instrumental systematics on next-generation CMB polarization experiments targeting primordial -mode polarization, with a focus on the forthcomi…

Systematic effects induced by half-wave plate differential optical load and TES nonlinearity for LiteBIRD
Silvia Micheli, Tijmen de Haan, Tommaso Ghigna +12
LiteBIRD, a forthcoming satellite mission, aims to measure the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) across the entire sky. The experiment will employ three telesco…
