CMB polarimetry with BICEP: instrument characterization, calibration, and performance
Yuki D. Takahashi, Denis Barkats, John O. Battle +22
BICEP is a ground-based millimeter-wave bolometric array designed to target the primordial gravity wave signature on the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at de…
QUaD: A High-Resolution Cosmic Microwave Background Polarimeter
QUaD collaboration, J. R. Hinderks, P. Ade +36
We describe the QUaD experiment, a millimeter-wavelength polarimeter designed to observe the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) from a site at the South Pole. The experiment compris…
Second and third season QUaD CMB temperature and polarization power spectra
QUaD collaboration, C. Pryke, P. Ade +29
We report results from the second and third seasons of observation with the QUaD experiment. Angular power spectra of the Cosmic Microwave Background are derived for both temperatu…
First season QUaD CMB temperature and polarization power spectra
QUaD Collaboration, P. Ade, J. Bock +27
QUaD is a bolometric CMB polarimeter sited at the South Pole, operating at frequencies of 100 and 150 GHz. In this paper we report preliminary results from the first season of oper…
Polarization Observations with the Cosmic Background Imager
A. C. S. Readhead, S. T. Myers, T. J. Pearson +23
Polarization observations of the cosmic microwave background with the Cosmic Background Imager from September 2002 to May 2004 provide a significant detection of the E-mode polariz…
DASI Three-Year Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization Results
Erik M. Leitch, J. M. Kovac, N. W. Halverson +3
We present the analysis of the complete 3-year data set obtained with the Degree Angular Scale Interferometer (DASI) polarization experiment, operating from the Amundsen-Scott Sout…
Galactic Foreground Constraints from the Python V Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropy Data
Pia Mukherjee, Kim Coble, Mark Dragovan +4
We constrain Galactic foreground contamination of the Python V cosmic microwave background anisotropy data by cross correlating it with foreground contaminant emission templates. T…
