Frequency selective bolometer development at Argonne National Laboratory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the development of a four-pixel camera suitable for photometry of distant galaxies located by Spitzer and SCUBA, and for study of other millimeter-wave sources such as ultra-luminous infrared galaxies, the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect in clusters, and galactic dust.

Search for Space-Time Correlations from the Planck Scale with the Fermilab Holometer

TL;DR: In this article, the Fermilab Holometer, a pair of co-located 39 m, high power Michelson interferometers, is reported to obtain differential position sensitivity to cross-correlated signals far exceeding any previous measurement in a broad frequency band.

Fact(or) Fiction in Dominee Du Toit's Inscription of the White Queen into the Origin of African Civilisation-Notes on an Extract from Di Koningin fan Skeba1

TL;DR: In this article, the authors look into the use of myth to legitimate power and the specific myth is that of the white queen of Sheba who is the purported founder of civilisation in southern Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-Redshift Cool-Core Galaxy Clusters Detected via the Sunyaev--Zel'dovich Effect in the South Pole Telescope Survey

D. R. Semler, +88 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 13 galaxy clusters uniformly selected from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) and followed up by the Chandra X-ray Observatory to investigate the properties of galaxy clusters selected via their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Optical Design and Characterization of the Microwave Anisotropy Probe

TL;DR: The MAP satellite as mentioned in this paper is a differential microwave radiometer that makes high fidelity polarization sensitive maps of the full sky in five frequency bands between 20 and 100 GHz, from these maps, the properties of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy and Galactic and extragalactic emission on angular scales ranging from the effective beam size, <0.23 degree, to the entire sky.
