The Simons Observatory (SO) will measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) in both temperature and polarization over a wide range of angular scales and frequencies from 27-270 GHz with unprecedented sensitivity. One technology for…
The paper presents the first results obtained with the Jodrell Bank - IAC two-element 33 GHz interferometer. The instrument was designed to measure the level of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) fluctuations at angular scales of 1 - 2…
A resonant photoacoustic cell capable of detecting the traces of gases at an amplitude-modulation regime is represented. The cell is designed so as to minimize the window background for the cell operation at a selected acoustic resonance. A…
We present an absolute distance measurement interferometer based on a two wavelength interferometer and a variable synthetic wavelength technique. The wavelength scanning range was 12 GHz, realized with a phase accuracy of 1.0 m{\lambda} by…
Adaptive optics to correct current telescopes over wide fields, or future very large telescopes over even narrow fields, will require real-time wavefront measurements made with a constellation of laser beacons. Here we report the first such…
We propose and investigate a compressive architecture for estimation and tracking of sparse spatial channels in millimeter (mm) wave picocellular networks. The base stations are equipped with antenna arrays with a large number of elements…
By reentering into laser interferometers, scattered or stray light introduces non-linear noise. This is a major limitation of precision interferometers as preventing such parasitic light is nearly impossible. Thus, substantial effort is put…
We demonstrate third harmonic generation in plasmonic antennas made of highly doped germanium and designed to be resonant in the mid infrared. Owing to the near-field enhancement, the result is an ultrafast, sub-diffraction, coherent light…
A tracking detector system has been constructed with an innovative approach to the classical multi-wire proportional chamber concept, using contemporary technologies. The detectors, covering an area of 0.58 square meters each, are optimized…
Characterization of the minute cosmic microwave background polarization signature requires multi-frequency, high-throughput precision instrument systems. We have previously described the detector fabrication of a 40 GHz focal plane and now…
We have used the Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland-Association (BIMA) array outfitted with sensitive cm-wave receivers to expand our search for arcminute scale anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). The interferometer was placed in a…
A single layer broadband millimetre wave (mm-wave) array with circular polarisation is proposed for the fifth generation (5G) mm-wave communication applications. The antenna element is designed to integrate the matching circuit into a…
The Einstein Telescope is the next-generation gravitational wave interferometer which, compared to current detectors, will enable the observation of gravitational signals at lower frequencies with a sensitivity improved by approximately two…
We report a new Fabry-Perot search for Halpha emission from the intergalactic cloud HI 1225+01 in an attempt to measure the low redshift ionizing background radiation. We set a new 2 sigma upper limit on Halpha emission of 8 mR (5 x…
The design of an improved microstrip antenna operating in the 28 GHz frequency spectrum is the main goal of this work. The design used a Roger RT 5880 LZ substrate with a thickness and permittivity of 0.762mm and 1.96, respectively. The…
A novel table-top experiment is introduced to detect photon-axion conversion: WISP Searches on a Fiber Interferometer (WISPFI). The setup consists of a Mach-Zehnder-type interferometer with a fiber placed inside an external magnetic field,…
Advanced gravitational-wave detectors that have made groundbreaking discoveries are Michelson interferometers with resonating optical cavities as their arms. As light travels at finite speed, these cavities are optimal for enhancing signals…
Construction of silicon neutron interferometers requires a perfect crystal silicon ingot (5 cm to 30 cm long) be machined such that Bragg diffracting "blades" protrude from a common base. Leaving the interferometer blades connected to the…
We report on the design, production, and testing of advanced double-sided silicon strip detectors under development at the Max-Planck-Institute as part of the Medium Energy Gamma-ray Astronomy (MEGA) project. The detectors are designed to…
A new Micromegas manufacturing technique, based on kapton etching technology, has been recently developed, improving the uniformity and stability of this kind of readouts. Excellent energy resolutions have been obtained, reaching 11% FWHM…
