QUaD: A High-Resolution Cosmic Microwave Background Polarimeter

TL;DR: The QUaD experiment as mentioned in this paper is a millimeter-wavelength polarimeter designed to observe the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) from a site at the South Pole, which comprises a 2.64 m Cassegrain telescope equipped with a cryogenically cooled receiver containing an array of 62 polarization-sensitive bolometers.

Pre-flight integration and characterization of the SPIDER balloon-borne telescope

TL;DR: Spider as discussed by the authors is a balloon-borne polarimeter designed to probe the primordial gravitational wave signal in the degree-scale B-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave background, which is used to map 7.5% of the sky with a depth of 11 to 14 μK•arcmin at each frequency.
