Measurement of Galaxy Cluster Integrated Comptonization and Mass Scaling Relations with the South Pole Telescope
B. R. Saliwanchik, T. E. Montroy, K. A. Aird +67
We describe a method for measuring the integrated Comptonization (YSZ) of clusters of galaxies from measurements of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect in multiple frequency bands a…
Constraints on the CMB Temperature Evolution using Multi-Band Measurements of the Sunyaev Zel'dovich Effect with the South Pole Telescope
A. Saro, J. Liu, J. J. Mohr +68
The adiabatic evolution of the temperature of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is a key prediction of standard cosmology. We study deviations from the expected adiabatic evolu…
A Study of Al-Mn Transition Edge Sensor Engineering for Stability
E. M. George, J. E. Austermann, J. A. Beall +32
The stability of Al-Mn transition edge sensor (TES) bolometers is studied as we vary the engineered TES transition, heat capacity, and/or coupling between the heat capacity and TES…
Optical Spectroscopy and Velocity Dispersions of Galaxy Clusters from the SPT-SZ Survey
J. Ruel, G. Bazin, M. Bayliss +79
We present optical spectroscopy of galaxies in clusters detected through the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect with the South Pole Telescope (SPT). We report our own measurements of $…
Detection of B-mode Polarization in the Cosmic Microwave Background with Data from the South Pole Telescope
D. Hanson, S. Hoover, A. Crites +65
Gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background generates a curl pattern in the observed polarization. This "B-mode" signal provides a measure of the projected mass distri…
SPT-CLJ2040-4451: An SZ-Selected Galaxy Cluster at z = 1.478 With Significant Ongoing Star Formation
M. B. Bayliss, M. L. N. Ashby, J. Ruel +76
SPT-CLJ2040-4451 -- spectroscopically confirmed at z = 1.478 -- is the highest redshift galaxy cluster yet discovered via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect. SPT-CLJ2040-4451 was a cand…
A direct measurement of the linear bias of mid-infrared-selected quasars at z~1 using cosmic microwave background lensing
J. E. Geach, R. C. Hickox, L. E. Bleem +52
We measure the cross-power spectrum of the projected mass density as traced by the convergence of the cosmic microwave background lensing field from the South Pole Telescope (SPT)…
Extragalactic millimeter-wave point source catalog, number counts and statistics from 771 square degrees of the SPT-SZ Survey
L. M. Mocanu, T. M. Crawford, J. D. Vieira +54
We present a point source catalog from 771 square degrees of the South Pole Telescope Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SPT-SZ) survey at 95, 150, and 220 GHz. We detect 1545 sources above 4.5 s…
The Growth of Cool Cores and Evolution of Cooling Properties in a Sample of 83 Galaxy Clusters at 0.3 < z < 1.2 Selected from the SPT-SZ Survey
M. McDonald, B. A. Benson, A. Vikhlinin +76
We present first results on the cooling properties derived from Chandra X-ray observations of 83 high-redshift (0.3 < z < 1.2) massive galaxy clusters selected by their Sunyaev-Zel…
A CMB lensing mass map and its correlation with the cosmic infrared background
G. P. Holder, M. P. Viero, O. Zahn +54
We use a temperature map of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) obtained using the South Pole Telescope at 150 GHz to construct a map of the gravitational convergence to z ~ 1100…
A measurement of the secondary-CMB and millimeter-wave-foreground bispectrum using 800 square degrees of South Pole Telescope data
T. M. Crawford, K. K. Schaffer, S. Bhattacharya +47
We present a measurement of the angular bispectrum of the millimeter-wave sky in observing bands centered at roughly 95, 150, and 220 GHz, on angular scales of $1^\prime \lesssim θ…
