Title: Observational Cosmology with Superconducting Sensors

 

Abstract: Observational Cosmology aims at understanding the rich history of our universe, peering through billions of light-years of cosmic evolution. To capture the faint signals from high redshifts we develop and deploy astronomical instruments with superconducting sensors -- a variety of them geared toward specific science cases. These sensors also become useful in radiostronomy for studying astrophysical objects that are not necessarily at cosmological distances. This talk will review a class of superconducting sensors being developed at Caltech and NASA-JPL for studying the Cosmic Microwave Background and structure formation in the early universe.
