On-sky performance of the CLASS Q-band telescope
John W. Appel, Zhilei Xu, Ivan L. Padilla +34
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is mapping the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at large angular scales () in search of a…
PICO - the probe of inflation and cosmic origins
Brian Sutin, Marcelo Alvarez, Nicholas Battaglia +31
The Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins (PICO) is a NASA-funded study of a Probe-class mission concept. The top-level science objectives are to probe the physics of the Big Bang…
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor Receiver Design
Jeffrey Iuliano, Joseph Eimer, Lucas Parker +42
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor consists of four instruments performing a CMB polarization survey. Currently, the 40 GHz and first 90 GHz instruments are deployed and ob…
Design and characterization of the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) 93 GHz focal plane
Sumit Dahal, Aamir Ali, John W. Appel +44
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) aims to detect and characterize the primordial B-mode signal and make a sample-variance-limited measurement of the optical depth…
Variable-delay Polarization Modulators for the CLASS Telescopes
Kathleen Harrington, Joseph Eimer, David T. Chuss +43
The search for inflationary primordial gravitational waves and the measurement of the optical depth to reionization, both through their imprint on the large angular scale correlati…
SiAl Alloy Feedhorn Arrays: Material Properties, Feedhorn Design, and Astrophysical Applications
Aamir M. Ali, Thomas Essinger-Hileman, Tobias Marriage +10
We present here a study of the use of the SiAl alloy CE7 for the packaging of silicon devices at cryogenic temperatures. We report on the development of baseplates and feedhorn arr…
