CCAT: Optical Design of the 410 GHz Prime-Cam Module
Tilak M. Patel, Tanner Buck, Anthony Huber +7
Prime-Cam is a first-generation instrument for the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST), enabling wide-field, multi-frequency observations for cosmology, line-intensity mappin…
Detection of the Pairwise Kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect and Pairwise Velocity with DESI DR1 Galaxies and ACT DR6 and Planck CMB Data
Yulin Gong, Patricio A. Gallardo, Rachel Bean +50
We present a 9.3-sigma detection of the pairwise kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich (kSZ) effect by combining a sample of 913,286 Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) from the Dark Energy Spectro…
The Simons Observatory: forecasted constraints on primordial gravitational waves with the expanded array of Small Aperture Telescopes
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, I. Abril-Cabezas, S. Adachi +479
We present updated forecasts for the scientific performance of the degree-scale (0.5 deg FWHM at 93 GHz), deep-field survey to be conducted by the Simons Observatory (SO). By 2027,…
The Simons Observatory: Science Goals and Forecasts for the Enhanced Large Aperture Telescope
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, M. Abitbol, I. Abril-Cabezas +419
We describe updated scientific goals for the wide-field, millimeter-wave survey that will be produced by the Simons Observatory (SO). Significant upgrades to the 6-meter SO Large A…
Integrated Galaxy Light from Stacking Random Pointings in the Dark Energy Survey Data
Jenna E. Moore, Seth H. Cohen, Philip Mauskopf +1
We present a new technique for measuring the integrated galaxy light (IGL) with stacked image data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We extract arcminute cutouts from n…
Simons Observatory: Characterization of the Large Aperture Telescope Receiver
Tanay Bhandarkar, Saianeesh K. Haridas, Jeff Iuliano +41
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) survey experiment that currently consists of three 0.42m small-aperture telescopes (SATs) and one 6m…
