Geometrical and physical optics analysis for mm-wavelength refractor telescopes designed to map the cosmic microwave background
Jon E. Gudmundsson
We present a compact two-lens HDPE f/1.6 refractor design that is capable of supporting a 28-deg diffraction-limited field of view at 1-mm wavelengths and contrast it to a similar…
PICO: Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins
S. Hanany, M. Alvarez, E. Artis +79
The Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins (PICO) is a proposed probe-scale space mission consisting of an imaging polarimeter operating in frequency bands between 20 and 800 GHz. W…
CMB-S4 Decadal Survey APC White Paper
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We provide an overview of the science case, instrument configuration and project plan for the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4, for consid…
The Simons Observatory: Astro2020 Decadal Project Whitepaper
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Shunsuke Adachi +280
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment sited on Cerro Toco in the Atacama Desert in Chile that promises to provide breakthrough…
CMB-S4 Science Case, Reference Design, and Project Plan
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We present the science case, reference design, and project plan for the Stage-4 ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4.
Planck 2018 results. V. CMB power spectra and likelihoods
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, Y. Akrami +165
This paper describes the 2018 Planck CMB likelihoods, following a hybrid approach similar to the 2015 one, with different approximations at low and high multipoles, and implementin…
Planck 2018 results. VII. Isotropy and Statistics of the CMB
Planck Collaboration, Y. Akrami, M. Ashdown +147
Analysis of the Planck 2018 data set indicates that the statistical properties of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies are in excellent agreement with pre…
Planck 2018 results. IX. Constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity
Planck Collaboration, Y. Akrami, F. Arroja +157
We analyse the Planck full-mission cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and E-mode polarization maps to obtain constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity (NG). We compare e…
Primordial Non-Gaussianity
P. Daniel Meerburg, Daniel Green, Muntazir Abidi +175
Our current understanding of the Universe is established through the pristine measurements of structure in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the distribution and shapes of…
Messengers from the Early Universe: Cosmic Neutrinos and Other Light Relics
Daniel Green, Mustafa A. Amin, Joel Meyers +136
The hot dense environment of the early universe is known to have produced large numbers of baryons, photons, and neutrinos. These extreme conditions may have also produced other lo…
PICO: Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins
Shaul Hanany, Marcelo Alvarez, Emmanuel Artis +79
The Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins (PICO) is an imaging polarimeter that will scan the sky for 5 years in 21 frequency bands spread between 21 and 799 GHz. It will produce f…
Neutrino physics with the PTOLEMY project: active neutrino properties and the light sterile case
PTOLEMY collaboration, M. G. Betti, M. Biasotti +54
The PTOLEMY project aims to develop a scalable design for a Cosmic Neutrino Background (CNB) detector, the first of its kind and the only one conceived that can look directly at th…
