      Barkats, D.; Aikin, R.; Bischoff, Colin A.; Buder, Immanuel D.; Kaufman, J. P.; Keating, B. G.; Kovac, John M; Su, Meng; Ade, P. A. R.; Battle, J. O.; Bierman, E. M.; Bock, J. J.; Chiang, H. C.; Dowell, C. D.; Duband, L.; Filippini, J.; Hivon, E. F.; Holzapfel, W. L.; Hristov, V. V.; Jones, W. C.; Kuo, C. L.; Leitch, E. M.; Mason, P. V.; Matsumura, T.; Nguyen, H. T.; Ponthieu, N.; Pryke, C.; Richter, S.; Rocha, G.; Sheehy, C.; Kernasovskiy, S. S.; Takahashi, Y. D.; Tolan, J. E.; Yoon, K. W. (American Astronomical Society, 2014)
      BICEP1 is a millimeter-wavelength telescope designed specifically to measure the inflationary B-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave background at degree angular scales. We present results from an analysis of the ...
    • Giant gamma-ray bubbles from Fermi-LAT: active galactic nucleus activity or bipolar galactic wind? 

      Su, Meng; Slatyer, Tracy R.; Finkbeiner, Douglas (IOP Publishing, 2010)
      Data from the Fermi-LAT reveal two large gamma-ray bubbles, extending 50° above and below the Galactic center (GC), with a width of about 40° in longitude. The gamma-ray emission associated with these bubbles has a ...
    • Is the 130 GeV line real? A search for systematics in the Fermi-LAT data 

      Finkbeiner, Douglas; Su, Meng; Weniger, Christoph (IOP Publishing, 2013)
      Our recent claims of a Galactic center feature in Fermi-LAT data at approximately 130 GeV have prompted an avalanche of papers proposing explanations ranging from dark matter annihilation to exotic pulsar winds. Because ...
