The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Cosmological parameters from three seasons of data
Jonathan L. Sievers, Renée A. Hlozek, Michael R. Nolta +90
We present constraints on cosmological and astrophysical parameters from high-resolution microwave background maps at 148 GHz and 218 GHz made by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (A…
SPIDER: a balloon-borne CMB polarimeter for large angular scales
J. P. Filippini, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +41
We describe SPIDER, a balloon-borne instrument to map the polarization of the millimeter-wave sky with degree angular resolution. Spider consists of six monochromatic refracting te…
SPIDER: Probing the Early Universe with a Suborbital Polarimeter
A. A. Fraisse, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +43
We evaluate the ability of SPIDER, a balloon-borne polarimeter, to detect a divergence-free polarization pattern ("B-modes") in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). In the inflat…
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…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Cosmology from Galaxy Clusters Detected via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect
Neelima Sehgal, Hy Trac, Viviana Acquaviva +66
We present constraints on cosmological parameters based on a sample of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich-selected galaxy clusters detected in a millimeter-wave survey by the Atacama Cosmology Tel…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Sunyaev Zel'dovich Selected Galaxy Clusters at 148 GHz in the 2008 Survey
T. A. Marriage, V. Acquaviva, P. A. R. Ade +68
We report on twenty-three clusters detected blindly as Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) decrements in a 148 GHz, 455 square-degree map of the southern sky made with data from the Atacama Co…
