TL;DR: The first set of maps and band-merged catalog from the Herschel Stripe 82 Survey (HerS) was presented in this paper. But this survey was designed to measure correlations with external tracers of the dark matter density field, either point-like (i.e., galaxies selected from radio to X-ray) or extended (i., clusters and gravitational lensing) to measure the bias and redshift distribution of intensities of infrared-emitting dusty star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report contributions to cosmic infrared background (CIB) intensities originating from known galaxies and their faint companions at submillimeter wavelengths using the publicly-available UltraVISTA catalog, and maps at 250, 350, and 500 µm from the HerMES.

TL;DR: In this article, a 350 GHz cryogenic passive video imaging system using 800 photon-noise-limited superconducting transition edge sensor bolometers is presented, which can image a 1 m x 1 m area at a standoff distance of 16 m to a resolution of approximately 1 cm at video frame rates (20 frames per second).

TL;DR: Spider as mentioned in this paper is a balloon-borne instrument to map the polarization of the millimeter-wave sky with degree angular resolution using monochromatic refracting telescopes, each illuminating a focal plane of large-format antenna-coupled bolometer arrays.

TL;DR: The BICEP/Keck (BK) experiment targets this primordial signature, the amplitude of which is parameterized by the tensor-to-scalar ratio r, by observing the polarized microwave sky through the exceptionally clean and stable atmosphere at the South Pole as discussed by the authors.
