Thermal architecture for the SPIDER flight cryostat
J. E. Gudmundsson, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +40
We describe the cryogenic system for SPIDER, a balloon-borne microwave polarimeter that will map 8% of the sky with degree-scale angular resolution. The system consists of a 1284 L…
Design and performance of the Spider instrument
M. C. Runyan, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +40
Here we describe the design and performance of the Spider instrument. Spider is a balloon-borne cosmic microwave background polarization imager that will map part of the sky at 90,…
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 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…
