Advanced ACTPol Cryogenic Detector Arrays and Readout
S. W. Henderson, R. Allison, J. Austermann +54
Advanced ACTPol is a polarization-sensitive upgrade for the 6 m aperture Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT), adding new frequencies and increasing sensitivity over the previous ACTP…
A cryogenic rotation stage with a large clear aperture for the half-wave plates in the Spider instrument
Sean Bryan, Peter Ade, Mandana Amiri +47
We describe the cryogenic half-wave plate rotation mechanisms built for and used in Spider, a polarization-sensitive balloon-borne telescope array that observed the Cosmic Microwav…
The Thermal Design, Characterization, and Performance of the SPIDER Long-Duration Balloon Cryostat
J. E. Gudmundsson, P. A. R. Ade, M. Amiri +40
We describe the SPIDER flight cryostat, which is designed to cool six millimeter-wavelength telescopes during an Antarctic long-duration balloon flight. The cryostat, one of the la…
Planck 2015 results. V. LFI calibration
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +206
We present a description of the pipeline used to calibrate the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) timelines into thermodynamic temperatures for the Planck 2015 data release, cov…
Planck 2015 results. II. Low Frequency Instrument data processing
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +213
We present an updated description of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) data processing pipeline, associated with the 2015 data release. We point out the places where our re…
