Proof of concept of the COSMOCal project at the IRAM 30m telescope
S. Savorgnano, L. Bizzarri, A. Ritacco +25
This work reports on a test campaign conducted at the IRAM 30m telescope to validate the COSMOCal instrument, a novel concept for absolute calibration of polarization angle, beam p…
Data reduction pipeline for the SuMAC millimeter-wave spectrometer at the LMT
A. M. Lapuente, P. S. Barry, M. Becerril-Tapia +28
We present the data reduction and analysis pipeline for the SuperSpec-MUSCAT Collaboration (SuMAC) along with several key science data products. In Summer 2025, SuperSpec on-chip s…
SuMAC: On-sky demonstration of multi-pixel on-chip millimeter-wave spectroscopy at the Large Millimeter Telescope
Marcial Becerril-Tapia, Peter S. Barry, Christopher S. Benson +29
The SuperSpec-MUSCAT Collaboration (SuMAC) is an effort to operate SuperSpec spectrometers in the MUSCAT instrument at the Large Millimeter Telescope (LMT). SuperSpec is an on-chip…
Status and future development of the COSMOCal Project for absolute CMB polarization calibration
Silvia Micheli, Alessia Ritacco, Alessandro Carones +36
The paper outlines the COSMOCal project, which will place an artificial polarized microwave source on a geostationary satellite to provide stable absolute calibration for CMB polar…
Challenges in probing turbulent and magnetic support in cores: the W43-MM1 protocluster case study
M. Valeille-Manet, F. Louvet, F. Motte +13
Estimating the level of non-thermal support in cores is both challenging and crucial for constraining the earliest stages of star formation. We quantify the kinetic and magnetic su…
Status of the COSmological Microwave Observations CALibrator
L. Mousset, J. Aumont, S. Berta +33
As the sensitivity of CMB telescopes increases, the need for precise calibration becomes critical. Started in 2022, the COSMOCal project aims to place an artificial polarized sourc…
