The Large-Scale Polarization Explorer (LSPE)
The LSPE collaboration, S. Aiola, G. Amico +54
The LSPE is a balloon-borne mission aimed at measuring the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at large angular scales, and in particular to constrain the curl co…
A coherent polarimeter array for the Large Scale Polarization Explorer balloon experiment
M. Bersanelli, A. Mennella, G. Morgante +43
We discuss the design and expected performance of STRIP (STRatospheric Italian Polarimeter), an array of coherent receivers designed to fly on board the LSPE (Large Scale Polarizat…
Systematic effects induced by a flat isotropic dielectric slab
Claudio Macculi, Mario Zannoni, Oscar Antonio Peverini +3
The instrumental polarization induced by a flat isotropic dielectric slab in microwave frequencies is faced. We find that, in spite of its isotropic nature, such a dielectric can p…
Antenna Instrumental Polarization and its Effects on E- and B-Modes for CMBP Observations
E. Carretti, S. Cortiglioni, C. Sbarra +1
We analyze the instrumental polarization generated by the antenna system (optics and feed horn) due to the unpolarized sky emission. Our equations show that it is given by the conv…
The Sky Polarization Observatory
S. Cortiglioni, G. Bernardi, E. Carretti +28
SPOrt is an ASI-funded experiment specifically designed to measure the sky polarization at 22, 32 and 90 GHz, which was selected in 1997 by ESA to be flown on the International Spa…
The BaR-SPOrt Experiment
M. Zannoni, S. Cortiglioni, G. Bernardi +29
BaR-SPOrt (Balloon-borne Radiometers for Sky Polarisation Observations) is an experiment to measure the linearly polarized emission of sky patches at 32 and 90 GHz with sub-degree…
