Joint Analysis of BICEP2/Keck Array and Planck Data

Peter A. R. Ade, +357 more
TL;DR: Strong evidence for dust and no statistically significant evidence for tensor modes is found and various model variations and extensions are probe, including adding a synchrotron component in combination with lower frequency data, and find that these make little difference to the r constraint.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved Constraints on Cosmology and Foregrounds from BICEP2 and Keck Array Cosmic Microwave Background Data with Inclusion of 95 GHz Band

TL;DR: An analysis of all data taken by the BICEP2 and Keck Array cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiments up to and including the 2014 observing season yields an upper limit r_{0.05}<0.09 at 95% confidence, which is robust to variations explored in analysis and priors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves Using Planck, WMAP, and New BICEP2/Keck Observations through the 2015 Season.

Peter A. R. Ade, +84 more
TL;DR: Results from an analysis of all data taken by the bicep2/Keck CMB polarization experiments up to and including the 2015 observing season are presented, showing the strongest constraints to date on primordial gravitational waves.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

SPT-3G: A Next-Generation Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization Experiment on the South Pole Telescope

Bradford Benson, +69 more
- 23 Jul 2014 - 
TL;DR: SPT-3G as discussed by the authors is a new polarization sensitive receiver for the 10-meter South Pole Telescope (SPT), which will enable the advance from statistical detection of B-mode polarization anisotropy power to high signal-to-noise measurements of individual modes, i.e., maps.
