Antenna-coupled TES bolometers used in BICEP2, Keck array, and SPIDER
P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin, M. Amiri +64
We have developed antenna-coupled transition-edge sensor (TES) bolometers for a wide range of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarimetry experiments, including BICEP2, Keck Arra…
Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) Pathfinder
Kevin Bandura, Graeme E. Addison, Mandana Amiri +31
A pathfinder version of CHIME (the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment) is currently being commissioned at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory (DRAO) in Pentict…
Calibrating CHIME, A New Radio Interferometer to Probe Dark Energy
Laura B. Newburgh, Graeme E. Addison, Mandana Amiri +32
The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is a transit interferometer currently being built at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory (DRAO) in Penticton, BC…
Antenna-coupled TES bolometers for the Keck Array, Spider, and Polar-1
R. O'Brient, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +50
Between the BICEP2 and Keck Array experiments, we have deployed over 1500 dual polarized antenna coupled bolometers to map the Cosmic Microwave Background's polarization. We have b…
Optimization and sensitivity of the Keck Array
S. Kernasovskiy, P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin +41
The Keck Array (SPUD) began observing the cosmic microwave background's polarization in the winter of 2011 at the South Pole. The Keck Array follows the success of the predecessor…
BICEP2 and Keck Array operational overview and status of observations
R. W. Ogburn, P. A. R. Ade, R. W. Aikin +50
The BICEP2 and Keck Array experiments are designed to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) on angular scales of 2-4 degrees (l=50-100). This is the reg…
