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…
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…
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…
The Simons Observatory: Design, Integration, and Current Status of Small Aperture Telescopes
Aashrita Mangu, Lance Corbett, Sanah Bhimani +14
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) survey experiment located in the Atacama Desert in Chile at an elevation of 5200 meters, nominally consisting of…
Simons Observatory: Pre-deployment Performance of a Large Aperture Telescope Optics Tube in the 90 and 150 GHz Spectral Bands
Carlos E. Sierra, Kathleen Harrington, Shreya Sutariya +42
The Simons Observatory will map the temperature and polarization over half of the sky, at millimeter wavelengths in six spectral bands from the Atacama Desert in Chile. These data…
The Simons Observatory: Design, integration, and testing of the small aperture telescopes
Nicholas Galitzki, Tran Tsan, Jake Spisak +77
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) survey experiment that includes small-aperture telescopes (SATs) observing from an altitude of 5,200 m in the Ata…
