Kavli Affiliate: Eric Charles | First 5 Authors: Regina Caputo, Marco Ajello, Carolyn Kierans, Jeremy Perkins, Judith Racusin | Summary: The All-sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory eXplorer (AMEGO-X) is designed to identify and characterize gamma rays from extreme explosions and accelerators. The main science themes include: supermassive black holes and their connections to neutrinos and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert L. Byer | First 5 Authors: Yen-Chieh Huang, Robert L. Byer, , , | Summary: A dielectric laser accelerator, operating at optical frequencies and GHz pulse rate, is expected to produce attosec electron bunches with a moderate beam current at high energy. For relativistic electrons, the attosec bunch has a spatial length […]

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Max Silva-Feaver, Zeeshan Ahmed, Kam Arnold, Josef C. Frisch, John Groh | Summary: A number of modern millimeter, sub-millimeter, and far-infrared detectors are read out using superconducting microwave (1-10GHz) resonators. The main detector technologies are Transition Edge Sensors, read out using Microwave SQUID Multiplexers ($mu$mux) and Microwave […]
Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Robin Anthony-Petersen, Andreas Biekert, Raymond Bunker, Clarence L. Chang, Yen-Yung Chang | Summary: The performance of superconducting qubits is degraded by a poorly characterized set of energy sources breaking the Cooper pairs responsible for superconductivity, creating a condition often called "quasiparticle poisoning." Recently, a superconductor with one […]

Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: D. C. Goldfinger, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri, D. Barkats | Summary: Observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background rely on cryogenic instrumentation with cold detectors, readout, and optics providing the low noise performance and instrumental stability required to make more sensitive measurements. It is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: A. Soliman, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri, D. Barkats | Summary: Constraining the Galactic foregrounds with multi-frequency Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) observations is an essential step towards ultimately reaching the sensitivity to measure primordial gravitational waves (PGWs), the sign of inflation after the Big-Bang […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chao-Lin Kuo | First 5 Authors: J. Cornelison, C. Vergès, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed, M. Amiri | Summary: The BICEP3 Polarimeter is a small aperture, refracting telescope, dedicated to the observation of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) at 95GHz. It is designed to target degree angular scale polarization patterns, in particular […]
