On the emissivity of wire-grid polarizers for astronomical observations at mm-wavelengths
Alessandro Schillaci, Elia Battistelli, Giuseppe D' Alessandro +2
We have measured, using a custom setup, the emissivity of metallic wire-grids, suitable for polarimeters and interferometers at mm and far infrared wavelengths. We find that the ef…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Data Characterization and Map Making
Rolando Dünner, Matthew Hasselfield, Tobias A. Marriage +71
We present a description of the data reduction and mapmaking pipeline used for the 2008 observing season of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). The data presented here at 148 GH…
SWIPE: a bolometric polarimeter for the Large-Scale Polarization Explorer
P. de Bernardis, S. Aiola, G. Amico +24
The balloon-borne LSPE mission is optimized to measure the linear polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background at large angular scales. The Short Wavelength Instrument for the P…
The Large-Scale Polarization Explorer (LSPE)
The LSPE collaboration, S. Aiola, G. Amico +54
The LSPE is a balloon-borne mission aimed at measuring the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at large angular scales, and in particular to constrain the curl co…
Intensity and polarization of the atmospheric emission at millimetric wavelengths at Dome Concordia
E. S. Battistelli, G. Amico, A. Baù +32
Atmospheric emission is a dominant source of disturbance in ground-based astronomy at mm wavelengths. The Antarctic plateau is recognized to be an ideal site for mm and sub-mm obse…
