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…
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…
The NIKA2 commissioning campaign: performance and first results
A. Catalano, R. Adam, P. Ade +39
The New IRAM KID Array 2 (NIKA 2) is a dual-band camera operating with three frequency-multiplexed kilopixels arrays of Lumped Element Kinetic Inductance Detectors (LEKID) cooled a…
High-resolution tSZ cartography of clusters of galaxies with NIKA at the IRAM 30-m telescope
F. Mayet, R. Adam, A. Adane +41
The thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (tSZ) is a powerful probe to study clusters of galaxies and is complementary with respect to X-ray, lensing or optical observations. Previous a…
