A Design for an Electromagnetic Filter for Precision Energy Measurements at the Tritium Endpoint
M. G. Betti, M. Biasotti, A. Bosca +48
We present a detailed description of the electromagnetic filter for the PTOLEMY project to directly detect the Cosmic Neutrino Background (CNB). Starting with an initial estimate f…
Full-sky beam convolution for cosmic microwave background applications
Adriaan J. Duivenvoorden, Jon E. Gudmundsson, Alexandra S. Rahlin
We introduce a publicly available full-sky beam convolution code library intended to inform the design of future cosmic microwave background (CMB) instruments and help current expe…
Studies of Systematic Uncertainties for Simons Observatory: Polarization Modulator Related Effects
Maria Salatino, Jacob Lashner, Martina Gerbino +24
The Simons Observatory (SO) will observe the temperature and polarization anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) over a wide range of frequencies (27 to 270 GHz) and…
Studies of Systematic Uncertainties for Simons Observatory: Optical Effects and Sensitivity Considerations
Patricio A. Gallardo, Jon Gudmundsson, Brian J. Koopman +32
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a new experiment that aims to measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) in temperature and polarization. SO will measure the polarized sky over a…

Nicholas Galitzki, Aamir Ali, Kam S. Arnold +75
The Simons Observatory (SO) will make precise temperature and polarization measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using a set of telescopes which will cover angular…
PTOLEMY: A Proposal for Thermal Relic Detection of Massive Neutrinos and Directional Detection of MeV Dark Matter
E. Baracchini, M. G. Betti, M. Biasotti +48
We propose to achieve the proof-of-principle of the PTOLEMY project to directly detect the Cosmic Neutrino Background (CNB). Each of the technological challenges described in [1,2]…
The Simons Observatory: Science goals and forecasts
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Peter Ade, James Aguirre +247
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a new cosmic microwave background experiment being built on Cerro Toco in Chile, due to begin observations in the early 2020s. We describe the scient…
The optical design of the six-meter CCAT-prime and Simons Observatory telescopes
Stephen C. Parshley, Michael D. Niemack, Richard Hills +13
A common optical design for a coma-corrected, 6-meter aperture, crossed-Dragone telescope has been adopted for the CCAT-prime telescope of CCAT Observatory, Inc., and for the Large…
Planck 2018 results. III. High Frequency Instrument data processing and frequency maps
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, Y. Akrami +152
This paper presents the High Frequency Instrument (HFI) data processing procedures for the Planck 2018 release. Major improvements in mapmaking have been achieved since the previou…
