In Proceedings of International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE) Astronomical Telescopes+ Instrumentation, San Diego, CA, August 28-September 1, 2016: 99140T-99140TAbstract
BICEP3, the latest telescope in the BICEP/Keck program, started science observations in March 2016. It is a 550mm aperture refractive telescope observing the polarization of the cosmic microwave background at 95 GHz. We show the focal plane design and detector performance, including spectral response, optical efficiency and preliminary sensitivity of the upgraded BICEP3. We demonstrate 9.72 µK√s noise performance of the BICEP3 receiver.Terms of Use
