The EXoplanet Climate Infrared TElescope (EXCITE): A balloon-borne mission to measure spectroscopic phase curves of transiting hot Jupiters
Timothy D. Rehm, Caitlyn Altermatt, Lee Bernard +26
The EXoplanet Climate Infrared TElescope (EXCITE) is a balloon-borne mission dedicated to measuring spectroscopic phase curves of hot Jupiter-type exoplanets. Phase curve measureme…
Diamond-loaded polyimide aerogel scattering filters and their applications in astrophysical and planetary science observations
Kyle R. Helson, Carol Yan Yan Chan, Stefan Arseneau +9
Infrared-blocking, aerogel-based scattering filters have a broad range of potential applications in astrophysics and planetary science instruments in the far-infrared, sub-millimet…
Fabrication and characterization of optical filters from polymeric aerogels loaded with diamond scattering particles
Alyssa Barlis, Haiquan Guo, Kyle Helson +8
We have developed a suite of infrared-blocking filters made by embedding diamond scattering particles in a polyimide aerogel substrate. We demonstrate the ability to tune the spect…
Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS): 90 GHz Telescope Pointing, Beam Profile, Window Function, and Polarization Performance
Rahul Datta, Michael K. Brewer, Jullianna Denes Couto +31
The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is a telescope array that observes the cosmic microwave background (CMB) over ~75% of the sky from the Atacama Desert, Chile, at…
Anti-reflection Coated Vacuum Window for the Primordial Inflation Polarization ExploreR (PIPER) balloon-borne instrument
Rahul Datta, David T. Chuss, Joseph Eimer +12
Measuring the faint polarization signal of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) not only requires high optical throughput and instrument sensitivity but also control over systemat…
PICO: Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins
S. Hanany, M. Alvarez, E. Artis +79
The Probe of Inflation and Cosmic Origins (PICO) is a proposed probe-scale space mission consisting of an imaging polarimeter operating in frequency bands between 20 and 800 GHz. W…
