Journal ArticleDOI

Polypropylene embedded metal mesh broadband achromatic half-wave plate for millimeter wavelengths

TL;DR: In this article, a multilayered metal-mesh achromatic half-wave plate (HWP) was designed for use in astronomical polarimetric instruments, and its performance was characterized in a polarizing Fourier transform spectrometer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antenna-coupled TES bolometers used in BICEP2, Keck array, and SPIDER

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have developed antenna-coupled transition-edge sensor (TES) bolometers for a wide range of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarimetry experiments, including BICEP2, Keck Array, and balloon borne SPIDER.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substructure and merger detection in resolved NIKA Sunyaev-Zel’dovich images of distant clusters

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply structure-enhancement filtering algorithms to high-resolution tSZ observations (e.g., NIKA) of distant clusters in order to search for pressure discontinuities, compressions, and secondary peaks in the ICM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polypropylene Embedded Metal-Mesh Broadband Achromatic Half Wave Plate for Millimeter Wavelengths

TL;DR: A novel multilayered metal-mesh achromatic half-wave plate for use in astronomical polarimetric instruments is described, although the measured differential phase shift for two orthogonal polarizations is lower than expected.
