A Constraint on Primordial -Modes from the First Flight of the SPIDER Balloon-Borne Telescope
SPIDER Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +68
We present the first linear polarization measurements from the 2015 long-duration balloon flight of SPIDER, an experiment designed to map the polarization of the cosmic microwave b…
Anti-reflection Coated Vacuum Window for the Primordial Inflation Polarization ExploreR (PIPER) balloon-borne instrument
Rahul Datta, David T. Chuss, Joseph Eimer +12
Measuring the faint polarization signal of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) not only requires high optical throughput and instrument sensitivity but also control over systemat…
Design and pre-flight performance of SPIDER 280 GHz receivers
E. C. Shaw, P. A. R. Ade, S. Akers +79
In this work we describe upgrades to the Spider balloon-borne telescope in preparation for its second flight, currently planned for December 2021. The Spider instrument is optimize…
Particle response of antenna-coupled TES arrays: results from SPIDER and the lab
B. Osherson, J. P. Filippini, J. Fu +45
Future mm-wave and sub-mm space missions will employ large arrays of multiplexed Transition Edge Sensor (TES) bolometers. Such instruments must contend with the high flux of cosmic…
Sub-Kelvin cooling for two kilopixel bolometer arrays in the PIPER receiver
E. R. Switzer, P. A. R. Ade, T. Baildon +30
The Primordial Inflation Polarization Explorer (PIPER) is a balloon-borne telescope mission to search for inflationary gravitational waves from the early universe. PIPER employs tw…
Submillimeter Polarization Spectrum of the Carina Nebula
Jamil A. Shariff, Peter A. R. Ade, Francesco E. Angilè +27
Linear polarization maps of the Carina Nebula were obtained at 250, 350, and 500 m during the 2012 flight of the BLASTPol balloon-borne telescope. These measurements are combine…
