RoboPol: A four-channel optical imaging polarimeter
A. N. Ramaprakash, C. V. Rajarshi, H. K. Das +30
We present the design and performance of RoboPol, a four-channel optical polarimeter operating at the Skinakas Observatory in Crete, Greece. RoboPol is capable of measuring both re…
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS): Design and capabilities
Michael E. Jones, Angela C. Taylor, Moumita Aich +23
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS) is an all-sky full-polarisation survey at a frequency of 5 GHz, designed to provide complementary data to the all-sky surveys of WMAP and Planck,…
Astronomical Receiver Modelling Using Scattering Matrices
O. G. King, Michael E. Jones, C. Copley +6
Proper modelling of astronomical receivers is vital: it describes the systematic errors in the raw data, guides the receiver design process, and assists data calibration. In this p…
Airships: A New Horizon for Science
Sarah H. Miller, Robert Fesen, Lynne Hillenbrand +33
The "Airships: A New Horizon for Science" study at the Keck Institute for Space Studies investigated the potential of a variety of airships currently operable or under development…
The RoboPol Pipeline and Control System
O. G. King, D. Blinov, A. N. Ramaprakash +26
We describe the data reduction pipeline and control system for the RoboPol project. The RoboPol project is monitoring the optical -band magnitude and linear polarization of a la…
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS): Design and implementation of the northern receiver
O. G. King, Michael E. Jones, E. J. Blackhurst +12
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS) is a project to map the full sky in total intensity and linear polarization at 5 GHz. The northern component of the survey uses a broadband singl…
