XMMSL1 J074008.2-853927: a tidal disruption event with thermal and non-thermal components
R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read, S. Komossa +3
We study X-ray bright tidal disruption events (TDE), close to the peak of their emission, with the intention of understanding the evolution of their light curves and spectra. Candi…
Radio observations of the tidal disruption event XMMSL1 J074085
K. D. Alexander, M. H. Wieringa, E. Berger +2
We present radio observations of the tidal disruption event candidate (TDE) XMMSL1 J074085 spanning 592 to 875 d post X-ray discovery. We detect radio emission that fades from a…
BICEP3 focal plane design and detector performance
H. Hui, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +56
BICEP3, the latest telescope in the BICEP/Keck program, started science observations in March 2016. It is a 550mm aperture refractive telescope observing the polarization of the co…
BICEP3 performance overview and planned Keck Array upgrade
J. A. Grayson, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +56
BICEP3 is a 520 mm aperture, compact two-lens refractor designed to observe the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at 95 GHz. Its focal plane consists of modular…
Optical Characterization of the BICEP3 CMB Polarimeter at the South Pole
K. S. Karkare, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +56
BICEP3 is a small-aperture refracting cosmic microwave background (CMB) telescope designed to make sensitive polarization maps in pursuit of a potential B-mode signal from inflatio…
A Reverse Shock in GRB 160509A
Tanmoy Laskar, Kate D. Alexander, Edo Berger +12
We present the second multi-frequency radio detection of a reverse shock in a -ray burst. By combining our extensive radio observations of the Fermi-LAT GRB 160509A at $z = 1.17…
