Particle Physics with the Cosmic Microwave Background with SPT-3G

J. S. Avva, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +85

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) encodes information about the content and evolution of the universe. The presence of light, weakly interacting particles impacts the expansion…

Constraints on Cosmological Parameters from the 500 deg SPTpol Lensing Power Spectrum

F. Bianchini, W. L. K. Wu, P. A. R. Ade +68

We present cosmological constraints based on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing potential power spectrum measurement from the recent 500 deg SPTpol survey, the most…

The SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey

L. E. Bleem, S. Bocquet, B. Stalder +135

We describe the observations and resultant galaxy cluster catalog from the 2770 deg SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey (SPT-ECS). Clusters are identified via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich…

Performance of Al-Mn Transition-Edge Sensor Bolometers in SPT-3G

A. J. Anderson, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +86

SPT-3G is a polarization-sensitive receiver, installed on the South Pole Telescope, that measures the anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from degree to arcminute s…

On-sky performance of the SPT-3G frequency-domain multiplexed readout

A. N. Bender, A. J. Anderson, J. S. Avva +86

Frequency-domain multiplexing (fMux) is an established technique for the readout of large arrays of transition edge sensor (TES) bolometers. Each TES in a multiplexing module has a…

A Detection of CMB-Cluster Lensing using Polarization Data from SPTpol

S. Raghunathan, S. Patil, E. Baxter +126

We report the first detection of gravitational lensing due to galaxy clusters using only the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The lensing signal is obtained u…

Fractional Polarisation of Extragalactic Sources in the 500-square-degree SPTpol Survey

N. Gupta, C. L. Reichardt, P. A. R. Ade +77

We study the polarisation properties of extragalactic sources at 95 and 150 GHz in the SPTpol 500 deg survey. We estimate the polarised power by stacking maps at known source p…

Design and Bolometer Characterization of the SPT-3G First-year Focal Plane

W. Everett, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +73

During the austral summer of 2016-17, the third-generation camera, SPT-3G, was installed on the South Pole Telescope, increasing the detector count in the focal plane by an order o…
