Cluster Cosmology Constraints from the 2500 deg SPT-SZ Survey: Inclusion of Weak Gravitational Lensing Data from Magellan and the Hubble Space Telescope

S. Bocquet, J. P. Dietrich, T. Schrabback +77

We derive cosmological constraints using a galaxy cluster sample selected from the 2500~deg SPT-SZ survey. The sample spans the redshift range and contains 343 c…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Joint Analysis of Galaxy Clustering, Galaxy Lensing, and CMB Lensing Two-point Functions

T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla, A. Alarcon +164

We perform a joint analysis of the auto and cross-correlations between three cosmic fields: the galaxy density field, the galaxy weak lensing shear field, and the cosmic microwave…

Mass Calibration of Optically Selected DES clusters using a Measurement of CMB-Cluster Lensing with SPTpol Data

S. Raghunathan, S. Patil, E. Baxter +129

We use cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps from the 500 deg SPTpol survey to measure the stacked lensing convergence of galaxy clusters from the Dark Energy Su…

Cosmological lensing ratios with DES Y1, SPT and Planck

J. Prat, E. J. Baxter, T. Shin +131

Correlations between tracers of the matter density field and gravitational lensing are sensitive to the evolution of the matter power spectrum and the expansion rate across cosmic…

Year two instrument status of the SPT-3G cosmic microwave background receiver

A. N. Bender, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +86

The South Pole Telescope (SPT) is a millimeter-wavelength telescope designed for high-precision measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The SPT measures both the tem…

Characterization and performance of the second-year SPT-3G focal plane

D. Dutcher, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +68

The third-generation instrument for the 10-meter South Pole Telescope, SPT-3G, was first installed in January 2017. In addition to completely new cryostats, secondary telescope opt…

Design and characterization of the SPT-3G receiver

J. A. Sobrin, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +68

The SPT-3G receiver was commissioned in early 2017 on the 10-meter South Pole Telescope (SPT) to map anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). New optics, detector, an…

Broadband anti-reflective coatings for cosmic microwave background experiments

A. Nadolski, A. M. Kofman, J. D. Vieira +71

The desire for higher sensitivity has driven ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments to employ ever larger focal planes, which in turn require larger reimaging o…

Optical Characterization of the SPT-3G Focal Plane

Zhaodi Pan, Peter Ade, Zeeshan Ahmed +73

The third-generation South Pole Telescope camera is designed to measure the cosmic microwave background across three frequency bands (95, 150 and 220 GHz) with ~16,000 transition-e…

Maps of the Southern Millimeter-wave Sky from Combined 2500 deg SPT-SZ and Planck Temperature Data

R. Chown, Y. Omori, K. Aylor +43

We present three maps of the millimeter-wave sky created by combining data from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) and the Planck satellite. We use data from the SPT-SZ survey, a surve…
