Source subtraction for the extended Very Small Array and 33-GHz source count estimates
Kieran A. Cleary, Angela C. Taylor, Elizabeth Waldram +16
We describe the source subtraction strategy and observations for the extended Very Small Array, a CMB interferometer operating at 33 GHz. A total of 453 sources were monitored at 3…
CLOVER - A new instrument for measuring the B-mode polarization of the CMB
A. C. Taylor, A. Challinor, D. Goldie +11
We describe the design and expected performance of Clover, a new instrument designed to measure the B-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave background. The proposed instrument…
Very Small Array observations of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect in nearby galaxy clusters
Katy Lancaster, Ricardo Genova-Santos, Nelson Falcon +10
We present VSA observations (~34GHz) on scales ~20 arcmin towards a complete, X-ray-flux-limited sample of seven clusters at redshift z<0.1. Four have significant SZ detections in…
Cosmological parameter estimation using Very Small Array data out to l=1500
Rafael Rebolo, Richard A. Battye, Pedro Carreira +29
We estimate cosmological parameters using data obtained by the Very Small Array (VSA) in its extended configuration, in conjunction with a variety of other CMB data and external pr…
High sensitivity measurements of the CMB power spectrum with the extended Very Small Array
Clive Dickinson, Richard A. Battye, Kieran Cleary +29
We present deep Ka-band ( GHz) observations of the CMB made with the extended Very Small Array (VSA). This configuration produces a naturally weighted synthesized FWHM…
Estimating the bispectrum of the Very Small Array data
Sarah Smith, Graca Rocha, Anthony Challinor +30
We estimate the bispectrum of the Very Small Array data from the compact and extended configuration observations released in December 2002, and compare our results to those obtaine…
