Constraints on Cosmology from the Cosmic Microwave Background Power Spectrum of the 2500 SPT-SZ Survey

Z. Hou, C. L. Reichardt, K. T. Story +49

We explore extensions to the CDM cosmology using measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the recent SPT-SZ survey, along with data from WMAP7 and measurements…

Lensing Noise in mm-wave Galaxy Cluster Surveys

Yashar Hezaveh, Keith Vanderlinde, Gilbert Holder +1

We study the effects of gravitational lensing by galaxy clusters of the background of dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), and examine the…

Improved Performance of TES Bolometers using Digital Feedback

Tijmen de Haan, Graeme Smecher, Matt Dobbs

Voltage biased, frequency multiplexed TES bolometers have become a widespread tool in mm-wave astrophysics. However, parasitic impedance and dynamic range issues can limit stabilit…

South Pole Telescope Software Systems: Control, Monitoring, and Data Acquisition

K. Story, E. Leitch, P. Ade +64

We present the software system used to control and operate the South Pole Telescope. The South Pole Telescope is a 10-meter millimeter-wavelength telescope designed to measure anis…

A Massive, Cooling-Flow-Induced Starburst in the Core of a Highly Luminous Galaxy Cluster

M. McDonald, M. Bayliss, B. A. Benson +83

In the cores of some galaxy clusters the hot intracluster plasma is dense enough that it should cool radiatively in the cluster's lifetime, leading to continuous "cooling flows" of…
