Constraining the physics of the early Universe with the Simons Observatory

西蒙斯天文台是位于智利的下一代宇宙微波背景（CMB）望远镜。西蒙斯天文台的主要目标是探测CMB辐射的偏振（称为“B模式”）中的一种非常特定的模式，这将提供一个独特的观测窗口，进入极早期的宇宙和大统一体尺度能量的物理学。作为我们团队的一员，您将有机会参与这项最先进的CMB实验，包括研究进行观测时使用的最佳扫描策略，以及开发复杂的分析技术，以从实验数据中提取极其微弱的B模式信号。

The Simons Observatory is a next generation Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) telescope to be located in Chile. The Simons Observatory's primary goal is to detect a very specific pattern in the polarisation of the CMB radiation (termed "B-modes") which will provide a unique observational window into the very early Universe and physics at GUT-scale energies. As part of our group you will have the opportunity to get involved with this state-of-the-art CMB experiment in a number of areas including investigating the best scanning strategies to use when conducting the observations and developing sophisticated analysis techniques to extract the extremely faint B-mode signal from the experimental data.
