Optimization of multi-resolution observation strategies for cosmic microwave background experiments
Sara M. Simon, Jacques Delabrouille, Julien Carron +4
Cosmic microwave background (CMB) observations are increasingly performed by using a combination of both small aperture telescopes (SATs) and large aperture telescopes (LATs) to ex…
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…
The Simons Observatory: Commissioning of the Mid-Frequency Small Aperture Telescopes
Kathleen Harrington, Remington Gerras, Nicholas Galitzki +88
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) survey experiment observing from an altitude of 5,200 m in the Atacama Desert in Chile. The SO Small Aperture Tel…
An upgraded frequency-selectable laser source (FLS) calibrator for CMB bandpass characterization
Lauren J. Saunders, Sara M. Simon, Shreya Sutariya +4
One of the biggest challenges for Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiments comes from the uncertainty in instrument bandpass calibration. Uncertainties in bandpass can limit f…
Design and Validation of a Cold Load for Characterization of CMB-S4 Detectors
Cesiley L. King, Ian Gullet, Adam J. Anderson +7
We present the design and validation of a variable temperature cryogenic blackbody source, hereinafter called a cold load, that will be used to characterize detectors to be deploye…
