Radio source calibration for the VSA and other CMB instruments at around 30 GHz
Yaser A. Hafez, Rod D. Davies, Richard J. Davis +20
Accurate calibration of data is essential for the current generation of CMB experiments. Using data from the Very Small Array (VSA), we describe procedures which will lead to an ac…
The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) -- VI. 350 micron mapping of submillimetre galaxies
Kristen Coppin, Mark Halpern, Douglas Scott +24
A follow-up survey using the Submillimetre High-Angular Resolution Camera (SHARC-II) at 350 microns has been carried out to map the regions around several 850 micron-selected sourc…
Millimetric observation of the SZ effect in the Corona Borealis supercluster
E. S. Battistelli, M. De Petris, L. Lamagna +13
We have observed the Corona Borealis Supercluster with the Millimeter and Infrared Testa grigia Observatory (MITO), located in the Italian Alps, at 143, 214, 272, and 353 GHz. We p…
Absolute calibration and beam reconstruction of MITO (a ground-based instrument in the millimetric region)
G. Savini, A. Orlando, E. S. Battistelli +4
An efficient sky data reconstruction derives from a precise characterization of the observing instrument. Here we describe the reconstruction of performances of a single-pixel 4-ba…
Triple Experiment Spectrum of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect in the Coma Cluster: H_0
E. S. Battistelli, M. De Petris, L. Lamagna +11
The Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect was previously measured in the Coma cluster by the Owens Valley Radio Observatory and Millimeter and IR Testa Grigia Observatory experiments and r…
Far infrared polarimeter with very low instrumental polarization
E. S. Battistelli, M. De Petris, L. Lamagna +6
After a short analysis of the main problems involved in the construction of a Far Infrared polarimeter with very low instrumental noise, we describe the instrument that will be emp…
