Cosmological Constraints from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich-Selected Clusters with X-ray Observations in the First 178 Square Degrees of the South Pole Telescope Survey

B. A. Benson, T. de Haan, J. P. Dudley +73

We use measurements from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) cluster survey in combination with X-ray measurements to constrain cosmological parameters. We prese…

The First Public Release of South Pole Telescope Data: Maps of a 95-square-degree Field from 2008 Observations

K. K. Schaffer, T. M. Crawford, K. A. Aird +40

The South Pole Telescope (SPT) has nearly completed a 2500-square-degree survey of the southern sky in three frequency bands. Here we present the first public release of SPT maps a…

Cosmic microwave background constraints on the duration and timing of reionization from the South Pole Telescope

O. Zahn, C. L. Reichardt, L. Shaw +48

The epoch of reionization is a milestone of cosmological structure formation, marking the birth of the first objects massive enough to yield large numbers of ionizing photons. The…

A measurement of secondary cosmic microwave background anisotropies with two years of South Pole Telescope observations

C. L. Reichardt, L. Shaw, O. Zahn +46

We present the first three-frequency South Pole Telescope (SPT) cosmic microwave background (CMB) power spectra. The band powers presented here cover angular scales 2000 < ell < 94…

Site testing for submillimetre astronomy at Dome C, Antarctica

P. Tremblin, V. Minier, N. Schneider +17

Over the past few years a major effort has been put into the exploration of potential sites for the deployment of submillimetre astronomical facilities. Amongst the most important…
