Preflight Characterization of the BLAST-TNG Receiver and Detector Arrays
Nathan P. Lourie, Peter A. R. Ade, Francisco E. Angile +26
The Next Generation Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST-TNG) is a submillimeter mapping experiment planned for a 28 day long-duration balloon (LDB) flight f…
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…
Low Temperature Detectors for CMB Imaging Arrays
Johannes Hubmayr, Jason E. Austermann, James A. Beall +9
We review advances in low temperature detector (LTD) arrays for Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization experiments, with a particular emphasis on imaging arrays. We briefly…
Development of Aluminum LEKIDs for Balloon-Borne Far-IR Spectroscopy
S. Hailey-Dunsheath, A. C. M. Barlis, J. E. Aguirre +6
We are developing lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors (LEKIDs) designed to achieve background-limited sensitivity for far-infrared (FIR) spectroscopy on a stratospheric bal…
Tile-and-trim micro-resonator array fabrication optimized for high multiplexing factors
Christopher M. McKenney, Jason E. Austermann, Jim Beall +9
We present a superconducting micro-resonator array fabrication method that is scalable, reconfigurable, and has been optimized for high multiplexing factors. The method uses unifor…
Millimeter-Wave Polarimeters Using Kinetic Inductance Detectors for TolTEC and Beyond
J. E. Austermann, J. A. Beall, S. A. Bryan +10
Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) provide a compelling path forward to the large-format polarimeter, imaging, and spectrometer arrays needed for next-generation experi…
