A MEASUREMENT OF THE DAMPING TAIL OF THE COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND POWER SPECTRUM WITH THE SOUTH POLE TELESCOPE
- R. Keisler, C. Reichardt, O. Zahn
- Physics
- 16 May 2011
We present a measurement of the angular power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using data from the South Pole Telescope (SPT). The data consist of 790 deg2 of sky observed at 150 GHz…
Dark Energy Survey year 1 results: Cosmological constraints from galaxy clustering and weak lensing
- D. Abbott, F. Abdalla, J. Zuntz
- PhysicsPhysical Review D
- 4 August 2017
We present cosmological results from a combined analysis of galaxy clustering and weak gravitational lensing, using 1321 deg2 of griz imaging data from the first year of the Dark Energy Survey (DES…

This book lays out the scientific goals to be addressed by the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment, CMB-S4, envisioned to consist of dedicated telescopes at the South…
First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. I. The Shadow of the Supermassive Black Hole
- K. Akiyama, A. Alberdi, L. Ziurys
- PhysicsAstrophysical Journal
- 10 April 2019
When surrounded by a transparent emission region, black holes are expected to reveal a dark shadow caused by gravitational light bending and photon capture at the event horizon. To image and study…
CMB-S4 Science Case, Reference Design, and Project Plan
- K. Abazajian, G. Addison, A. Zonca
- Physics
- 9 July 2019
We present the science case, reference design, and project plan for the Stage-4 ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4.
GALAXY CLUSTERS DISCOVERED VIA THE SUNYAEV–ZEL'DOVICH EFFECT IN THE 2500-SQUARE-DEGREE SPT-SZ SURVEY
- L. Bleem, B. Stalder, A. Zenteno
- Physics
- 2 September 2014
We present a catalog of galaxy clusters selected via their Sunyaev–Zel'dovich (SZ) effect signature from 2500 deg2 of South Pole Telescope (SPT) data. This work represents the complete sample of…
EXTRAGALACTIC MILLIMETER-WAVE SOURCES IN SOUTH POLE TELESCOPE SURVEY DATA: SOURCE COUNTS, CATALOG, AND STATISTICS FOR AN 87 SQUARE-DEGREE FIELD
- J. Vieira, T. Crawford, A. Zenteno
- Physics
- 11 December 2009
We report the results of an 87 deg2 point-source survey centered at R.A. 5h30m, decl. −55° taken with the South Pole Telescope at 1.4 and 2.0 mm wavelengths with arcminute resolution and milli-Jansky…
A massive, cooling-flow-induced starburst in the core of a luminous cluster of galaxies
- M. McDonald, M. Bayliss, A. Zenteno
- PhysicsNature
- 14 August 2012
An exceptionally luminous galaxy cluster that hosts an extremely strong cooling flow and a large star-formation rate implies that a significant fraction of the stars in the central galaxy of this cluster may form through accretion of the intracluster medium, rather than (as is currently thought) assembling entirely via mergers.
A MEASUREMENT OF SECONDARY COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND ANISOTROPIES FROM THE 2500 SQUARE-DEGREE SPT-SZ SURVEY
- E. George, C. Reichardt, O. Zahn
- Physics
- 13 August 2014
We present measurements of secondary cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and cosmic infrared background (CIB) fluctuations using data from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) covering the…
A SUNYAEV–ZEL'DOVICH-SELECTED SAMPLE OF THE MOST MASSIVE GALAXY CLUSTERS IN THE 2500 deg2 SOUTH POLE TELESCOPE SURVEY
- R. Williamson, B. Benson, A. Zenteno
- Physics
- 6 January 2011
The South Pole Telescope (SPT) is currently surveying 2500 deg2 of the southern sky to detect massive galaxy clusters out to the epoch of their formation using the Sunyaev–Zel'dovich (SZ) effect.…
