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

职业生涯：基于大型相干偏振仪阵列的新型CMB偏振实验研究0449809琥珀·米勒博士。哥伦比亚大学的Amber Miller将开展一项与宇宙微波背景(CMB)各向异性相关的研究项目。PI将开发一个40 GHz的“探路器阵列”，用于对CMB的观测，并最终为生产更大幅面的相机铺平道路。有了这台仪器，应该可以提高对偏振各向异性的观测灵敏度，并更好地限制前景的偏振污染。PI将让本科生参与她的研究。还将开展一项试点计划，让一名当地高中教师和两名学生参与PI的研究-长期目标是在每个学年期间让哥伦比亚师范学院的一名实习教师参与这一努力。

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.
