Thermal architecture for the QUBIC cryogenic receiver
A. J. May, C. Chapron, G. Coppi +127
QUBIC, the QU Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology, is a novel forthcoming instrument to measure the B-mode polarization anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background. The detec…
Kinetic Inductance Detectors for the OLIMPO experiment: design and pre-flight characterization
A. Paiella, A. Coppolecchia, L. Lamagna +15
We designed, fabricated, and characterized four arrays of horn--coupled, lumped element kinetic inductance detectors (LEKIDs), optimized to work in the spectral bands of the balloo…
NIKA2 Performance and Cosmology Program with Galaxy Clusters
L. Perotto, R. Adam, P. Ade +38
NIKA2 is a dual-band millimetric camera of thousands of Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID) installed at the IRAM 30-meter telescope in the Spanish Sierra Nevada. The instrument com…
Preflight Characterization of the BLAST-TNG Receiver and Detector Arrays
Nathan P. Lourie, Peter A. R. Ade, Francisco E. Angile +26
The Next Generation Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST-TNG) is a submillimeter mapping experiment planned for a 28 day long-duration balloon (LDB) flight f…
The Simons Observatory: Science goals and forecasts
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Peter Ade, James Aguirre +247
The Simons Observatory (SO) is a new cosmic microwave background experiment being built on Cerro Toco in Chile, due to begin observations in the early 2020s. We describe the scient…
BFORE: A CMB Balloon Payload to Measure Reionization, Neutrino Mass, and Cosmic Inflation
Sean Bryan, Peter Ade, J. Richard Bond +21
BFORE is a high-altitude ultra-long-duration balloon mission to map the cosmic microwave background (CMB). During a 28-day mid-latitude flight launched from Wanaka, New Zealand, th…
