CAREER: A Novel CMB Polarization Experiment based on Large Arrays of Coherent Polarimeters

职业生涯：一个新的CMB偏振实验的基础上大阵列的相干偏振仪摘要0449809琥珀米勒博士。哥伦比亚大学的琥珀米勒将进行一项与宇宙微波背景（CMB）各向异性有关的研究计划。 PI将开发一个40 GHz的“探路者阵列”，用于CMB的观测，并最终为生产更大格式的相机铺平道路。 有了这种仪器，应该有可能提高观测灵敏度偏振各向异性，更好地约束前景偏振污染。 PI将让本科生参与她的研究。 还将开展一项试点计划，涉及一名当地高中教师和两名学生参加PI的研究--长期目标是在每一学年，将一名来自哥伦比亚师范学院的实习教师纳入这项工作。

CAREER: A Novel CMB Polarization Experiment based on Large Arrays of Coherent Polarimeters ABSTRACTAST 0449809 Amber MillerDr. Amber Miller, at Columbia University, will undertake a research program related to the anisotropy in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The PI will develop a 40 GHz "pathfinder array", to be used for observations of the CMB, and ultimately pave the way for production of a larger-format camera. With this instrument, it should be possible to increase observational sensitivity to polarization anisotropy, and better constrain foreground polarization contaminants. The PI will involve undergraduates in her research. A pilot program, involving a local high school teacher and two students in the PI's research, will also be undertaken - the longer-term goal is to include a student teacher from Columbia's Teacher's College, during each academic year, in the effort.
