摘要：
The implementation of utilizing superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) readout for constant voltage biased transition edge sensors (TES) has enabled the detection of the infinitesimal fluctuation in cosmic microwave background (CMB). The properties of the fluctuations will provide us the information of the universe at the time that this light was first emitted. In short, by measuring the CMB today, we learn about the distant, ancient universe-how the universe began, what it is made of, and how it evolved to its current state. Over the past 20 years, we have achieved many successful CMB measurements with Josephson junctions. Brian, I offer my congratulations on your eight decades of life-Happy 80th birthday!
