The Simons Observatory: forecasted constraints on primordial gravitational waves with the expanded array of Small Aperture Telescopes
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, I. Abril-Cabezas, S. Adachi +479
We present updated forecasts for the scientific performance of the degree-scale (0.5 deg FWHM at 93 GHz), deep-field survey to be conducted by the Simons Observatory (SO). By 2027,…

Filtering in CMB data analysis with application to ACT DR4 and Planck observations
Erik Rosenberg, Steven Gratton, Anthony Challinor
Motivated by observed discrepancies between the Atacama Cosmology Telescope Data Release 4 (ACT DR4) and Planck 2018 cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy power spectra, par…

The Simons Observatory: Validation of reconstructed power spectra from simulated filtered maps for the Small Aperture Telescope survey
Carlos HervÃas-Caimapo, Kevin Wolz, Adrien La Posta +33
We present a transfer function-based method to estimate angular power spectra from filtered maps for cosmic microwave background (CMB) surveys. This is especially relevant for expe…
