The measurement of the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation
is one of the current frontiers in cosmology. In particular, the detection of the primordial …

We present a superconducting bolometer fabricated by a rolled-up technology that allows
one to combine the two-dimensionality (2D) of the superconducting layer with a helical spiral …

We review advances in low-temperature detector (LTD) arrays for cosmic microwave
background (CMB) polarization experiments, with a particular emphasis on imaging arrays …

In this paper, we present beam pattern tests performed on the SWIPE multi-mode bolometric
detector pixel assembly. A 20-mm-aperture horn is coupled to a large detector absorber (10 …

A new device based on the Raspberry-Pi to monitor the locomotion of Arctic marine
invertebrates and to analyze chronobiologic data has been made, tested and deployed. The …

The large-scale polarization explorer (LSPE) is a cosmology program for the measurement
of large-scale curl-like features (B-modes) in the polarization of the cosmic microwave …

Spectral response characteristics of novel planar GaAs blocked-impurity-band (BIB) detector
with the absorption region formed by ion implantation have been investigated. Processing …

In this paper we investigate the impact of using a polarization modulator in The Short
Wavelength Instrument for the Polarization Explorer (SWIPE) of the large scale polarization …

Aims. We present an extension of the ROMA map-making algorithm for the generation of
optimal cosmic microwave background polarization maps. The new code allows for a …

Foreground components in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) are sparse in a
needlet representation, due to their specific morphological features (anisotropy, non …
