Feedback-Controlled Beam Pattern Measurement Method Using a Power-Variable Calibration Source for Cosmic Microwave Background Telescopes
Haruaki Hirose, Masaya Hasegawa, Daisuke Kaneko +5
We demonstrate a novel beam pattern measurement method for the side lobe characterization of cosmic microwave background telescopes. The method employs a power-variable artificial…

A measurement of atmospheric circular polarization with POLARBEAR
Takuro Fujino, Satoru Takakura, Shahed Shayan Arani +20
At millimeter wavelengths, the atmospheric emission is circularly polarized owing to the Zeeman splitting of molecular oxygen by the Earth's magnetic field. We report a measurement…
