The design and development of a high-resolution visible-to-near-UV telescope for balloon-borne astronomy: SuperBIT
L. Javier Romualdez, Steven J. Benton, Paul Clark +14
Balloon-borne astronomy is unique in that it allows for a level of image stability, resolution, and optical backgrounds that are comparable to space-borne systems due to greatly re…
Design of 280 GHz feedhorn-coupled TES arrays for the balloon-borne polarimeter SPIDER
Johannes Hubmayr, Jason E. Austermann, James A. Beall +40
We describe 280 GHz bolometric detector arrays that instrument the balloon-borne polarimeter SPIDER. A primary science goal of SPIDER is to measure the large-scale B-mode polarizat…
Precise Pointing and Stabilization Performance for the Balloon-borne Imaging Testbed (BIT): 2015 Test Flight
L. J. Romualdez, P. Clark, C. J. Damaren +5
Balloon-borne astronomy offers an attractive option for experiments that require precise pointing and attitude stabilization, due to a large reduction in the atmospheric interferen…
