A Simulation-Based Method for Correcting Mode Coupling in CMB Angular Power Spectra
J. S. -Y. Leung, J. Hartley, J. M. Nagy +67
Modern CMB analysis pipelines regularly employ complex time-domain filters, beam models, masking, and other techniques during the production of sky maps and their corresponding ang…
The XFaster Power Spectrum and Likelihood Estimator for the Analysis of Cosmic Microwave Background Maps
A. E. Gambrel, A. S. Rahlin, X. Song +64
We present the XFaster analysis package. XFaster is a fast, iterative angular power spectrum estimator based on a diagonal approximation to the quadratic Fisher matrix estimator. X…
SPIDER: CMB polarimetry from the edge of space
R. Gualtieri, J. P. Filippini, P. A. R. Ade +61
SPIDER is a balloon-borne instrument designed to map the polarization of the millimeter-wave sky at large angular scales. SPIDER targets the B-mode signature of primordial gravitat…
Spider Optimization II: Optical, Magnetic and Foreground Effects
D. T. O'Dea, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +43
Spider is a balloon-borne instrument designed to map the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) with degree-scale resolution over a large fraction of the sky. Spider…
Characterization of the BICEP Telescope for High-Precision Cosmic Microwave Background Polarimetry
Y. D. Takahashi, P. A. R. Ade, D. Barkats +23
The BICEP experiment was designed specifically to search for the signature of inflationary gravitational waves in the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Using a…
Measurement of Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization Power Spectra from Two Years of BICEP Data
H. C. Chiang, P. A. R. Ade, D. Barkats +25
Background Imaging of Cosmic Extragalactic Polarization (BICEP) is a bolometric polarimeter designed to measure the inflationary B-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave backgro…
