LiteBIRD Mission Overview after Mission Reformation
LiteBIRD Collaboration, K. Aizawa, H. Akamatsu +172
LiteBIRD is a JAXA-led space mission designed to produce all-sky microwave polarization maps. Its primary science goal is to test representative inflationary models by measuring th…
Calibration of CMB Polarisation Using Cross-Experiment Correlations
Claire Rigouzzo, Eugene Lim, Susanna Azzoni +1
Parity-violating physics in the Universe can generate correlations between the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) - and -modes, but detecting such signals requires extremely a…
The Simons Observatory: Quantifying the impact of beam chromaticity on large-scale B-mode science
Nadia Dachlythra, Kevin Wolz, Susanna Azzoni +17
The Simons Observatory (SO) Small Aperture Telescopes (SATs) will observe the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature and polarization at six frequency bands. Within these ba…
Robust CMB B-mode analysis with Needlet-ILC and simulation-based inference
Adriaan J. Duivenvoorden, Kristen Surrao, Adrian E. Bayer +4
We explore a novel analysis framework for parameter inference with large-scale CMB polarization data. Our method uses simulation-based inference combined with the needlet internal…
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,…
The Simons Observatory: Science Goals and Forecasts for the Enhanced Large Aperture Telescope
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, M. Abitbol, I. Abril-Cabezas +419
We describe updated scientific goals for the wide-field, millimeter-wave survey that will be produced by the Simons Observatory (SO). Significant upgrades to the 6-meter SO Large A…
