Observing low elevation sky and the CMB Cold Spot with BICEP3 at the South Pole
J. Kang, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84
BICEP3 is a 520 mm aperture on-axis refracting telescope at the South Pole, which observes the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at 95 GHz to search for the B-m…
Polarization Calibration of the BICEP3 CMB polarimeter at the South Pole
J. Cornelison, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +84
The BICEP3 CMB Polarimeter is a small-aperture refracting telescope located at the South Pole and is specifically designed to search for the possible signature of inflationary grav…
Receiver development for BICEP Array, a next-generation CMB polarimeter at the South Pole
L. Moncelsi, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +72
A detection of curl-type (-mode) polarization of the primary CMB would be direct evidence for the inflationary paradigm of the origin of the Universe. The BICEP/Keck Array (BK)…
Strong detection of the CMB lensingxgalaxy weak lensingcross-correlation from ACT-DR4,PlanckLegacy and KiDS-1000
Naomi Clare Robertson, David Alonso, Joachim Harnois-Déraps +48
We measure the cross-correlation between galaxy weak lensing data from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS-1000, DR4) and cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing data from the Atacama C…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Weighing distant clusters with the most ancient light
Mathew S. Madhavacheril, Cristóbal Sifón, Nicholas Battaglia +58
We use gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) to measure the mass of the most distant blindly-selected sample of galaxy clusters on which a lensing measurem…

We present a constraint on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, , derived from measurements of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization -modes with "delensing," whereby the unce…
Morphology of Weak Lensing Convergence Maps
D. Munshi, T. Namikawa, J. D. McEwen +2
We study the morphology of convergence maps by perturbatively reconstructing their Minkowski Functionals (MFs). We present a systematics study using a set of three generalised skew…

CMB-S4---the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment---is set to significantly advance the sensitivity of CMB measurements and enhance our underst…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Delensed Power Spectra and Parameters
Dongwon Han, Neelima Sehgal, Amanda MacInnis +39
We present LCDM cosmological parameter constraints obtained from delensed microwave background power spectra. Lensing maps from a subset of DR4 data from the Atacama Cosmology Tele…
