Polarimetry at millimeter wavelengths with the NIKA camera: calibration and performance
A. Ritacco, N. Ponthieu, A. Catalano +37
Magnetic fields, which play a major role in a large number of astrophysical processes from galactic to cosmological scales, can be traced via observations of dust polarization as d…
Non-parametric deprojection of NIKA SZ observations: Pressure distribution in the Planck-discovered cluster PSZ1 G045.85+57.71
F. Ruppin, R. Adam, B. Comis +38
The determination of the thermodynamic properties of clusters of galaxies at intermediate and high redshift can bring new insights into the formation of large-scale structures. It…
Lumped Element Kinetic Inductance Detectors for space applications
Alessandro Monfardini, Jochem Baselmans, Alain Benoit +12
Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID) are now routinely used in ground-based telescopes. Large arrays, deployed in formats up to kilopixels, exhibit state-of-the-art performance at mi…
Mapping the kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect toward MACS J0717.5+3745 with NIKA
R. Adam, I. Bartalucci, G. W. Pratt +47
Measurement of the gas velocity distribution in galaxy clusters provides insight into the physics of mergers, through which large scale structures form in the Universe. Velocity es…
High angular resolution SZ observations with NIKA and NIKA2
B. Comis, R. Adam, P. Ade +39
NIKA2 (New IRAM KID Arrays) is a dual band (150 and 260 GHz) imaging camera based on Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KIDs) and designed to work at the IRAM 30 m telescope (Pico Velet…
NIKEL_AMC: Readout electronics for the NIKA2 experiment
O. Bourrion, A. Benoit, J. L. Bouly +11
The New Iram Kid Arrays-2 (NIKA2) instrument has recently been installed at the IRAM 30 m telescope. NIKA2 is a state-of-art instrument dedicated to mm-wave astronomy using microwa…
