Polarization Calibration of the BICEP3 CMB polarimeter at the South Pole

J. Cornelison, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84

The BICEP3 CMB Polarimeter is a small-aperture refracting telescope located at the South Pole and is specifically designed to search for the possible signature of inflationary grav…

Receiver development for BICEP Array, a next-generation CMB polarimeter at the South Pole

L. Moncelsi, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +72

A detection of curl-type (-mode) polarization of the primary CMB would be direct evidence for the inflationary paradigm of the origin of the Universe. The BICEP/Keck Array (BK)…

Optical Design and Characterization of 40-GHz Detector and Module for the BICEP Array

A. Soliman, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +66

Families of cosmic inflation models predict a primordial gravitational-wave background that imprints B-mode polarization pattern in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). High sens…

Design and performance of the first BICEP Array receiver

A. Schillaci, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +66

Branches of cosmic inflationary models, such as slow-roll inflation, predict a background of primordial gravitational waves that imprints a unique odd-parity B-mode pattern in the…

Characterizing the Sensitivity of 40 GHz TES Bolometers for BICEP Array

C. Zhang, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +66

The BICEP/Keck (BK) experiment aims to detect the imprint of primordial gravitational waves in the Cosmic Microwave Background polarization, which would be direct evidence of the i…
