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…
Galactic Science with the LiteBIRD satellite: Spectral characterization of diffuse Galactic polarized emission at the angular power spectrum level
S. Vinzl, J. Aumont, L. Vacher +108
Detection of primordial -mode polarization in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from tensor perturbations generated during inflation is a major scientific goal of future CMB…
A cross-calibration approach for polarisation-sensitive detectors in CMB experiments: application to LiteBIRD's polarisation angle calibration
A. Novelli, F. Piacentini, S. Micheli +102
One of the current challenges in observational cosmology is obtaining high-precision polarisation maps of the CMB to measure primordial -modes and constrain the tensor-to-scalar…
From Edges to Depth: Probing the Spatial Hierarchy in Vision Transformers
Jainum Sanghavi
Vision Transformers trained only on image classification routinely transfer to tasks that demand spatial understanding, yet they receive no spatial supervision during pretraining.…
Mitigating half-wave plate systematics at the map-making level: calibration requirements for LiteBIRD
N. Raffuzzi, A. Carones, M. Monelli +101
Although half-wave plates (HWPs) are becoming a popular choice of polarization modulators for cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments, their non-idealities can introduce syst…
On the computational feasibility of Bayesian end-to-end analysis of LiteBIRD simulations within Cosmoglobe
R. Aurvik, M. Galloway, E. Gjerløw +107
We assess the computational feasibility of end-to-end Bayesian analysis of the JAXA-led LiteBIRD experiment by analysing simulated time ordered data (TOD) for a subset of detectors…
