Detection of B-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation is one of the frontiers of observational cosmology. Because they are an order of magnitude fainter than E-modes, it is quite a challenge to detect B-modes.…

The sensitivity of interferometers with linear polarizers to the CMB E and B mode are variant under the rotation of the polarizer frame, while interferometer with circular polarizers are equally sensitive to E and B mode. We present…

The cosmic microwave background polarization is rich of cosmological information complementary to those from temperature anisotropies. Linear polarization can be decomposed uniquely in two components of opposite parities, called E and B.…

Although it has previously been recognized that the CMB polarization measurement on a sky ring is able to separate the B and E-mode patterns, we show that the rotational symmetry of the CMB polarization measurement is indeed unique, in that…

Context. The search for B-mode polarization fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background is one of the main challenges of modern cosmology. The expected level of the B-mode signal is very low and therefore requires the development of…

Cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization observations will require superb control of systematic errors in order to achieve their full scientific potential, particularly in the case of attempts to detect the B modes that may provide a…

The B-Machine Telescope is the culmination of several years of development, construction, characterization and observation. The telescope is a departure from standard polarization chopping of correlation receivers to a half wave plate…

The work examines the small-scale E and B patterns of the CMBR polarization anisotropy. Particularly we address the topological natures and spatial symmetries of the E and B modes, and how one may make use of the local measurements of…

We have simulated the interferometric observation of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature and polarization fluctuations. We have constructed data pipelines from the time-ordered raw visibility samples to the CMB power spectra…

In future microwave background polarization experiments, particularly those that aim to characterize the B component, careful attention will have to be paid to the mixing of E and B components due to finite sky coverage and pixelization.…

The detection of the primordial $B$-mode spectrum of the polarized cosmic microwave background (CMB) signal may provide a probe of inflation. However, observation of such a faint signal requires excellent control of systematic errors.…

We present a measurement of the $B$-mode polarization power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) using taken from July 2014 to December 2016 with the POLARBEAR experiment. The CMB power spectra are measured using observations…

Separation of the B component of a cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization map from the much larger E component is an essential step in CMB polarimetry. For a map with incomplete sky coverage, this separation is necessarily hampered…

Measurements of the 2.7 K cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation now provide the most stringent constraints on cosmological models. The power spectra of the temperature anisotropies and the $E$-mode polarization of the CMB are…

In a microwave background polarization map that covers only part of the sky, it is impossible to separate the E and B components perfectly. This difficulty in general makes it more difficult to detect the B component in a data set. Any…

We show that the cosmic birefringence and miscalibrated polarisation angles can be determined simultaneously by cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments using the cross-correlation between $E$- and $B$-mode polarisation data. This is…

The full sky cosmic microwave background polarization field can be decomposed into 'electric' (E) and 'magnetic' (B) components that are signatures of distinct physical processes. We give a general construction that achieves separation of E…

The Q&U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology (QUBIC) is the first bolometric interferometer designed to measure the primordial B-mode polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). Bolometric interferometry is a novel technique…

Measuring the B modes of the CMB polarization fluctuations would provide very strong constraints on inflation. The main challenge in this measurement is the treatment of systematic effects. CMB observations with imagers and interferometers,…

Measuring the imprint of primordial gravitational waves in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarisation field is one of the main goals in modern cosmology. However, the so called $B$-mode polarisation can be generated by different…
