摘要
The Simons Array is an expansion of the POLARBEAR cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiment currently observing from the Atacama Desert in Northern Chile. This expansion will create an array of three 3.5 m telescopes each coupled to a multichroic bolometric receiver. The Simons Array will have the sensitivity to produce a > 5 sigma detection of inflationary gravitational waves with a tensor-to-scalar ratio r > 0.01, detect the known minimum 58 meV sum of the neutrino masses with 3 sigma confidence when combined with a next-generation baryon acoustic oscillation measurement, and make a lensing map of large-scale structure over the 80% of the sky available from its Chilean site. These goals require high sensitivity and the ability to extract the CMB signal from contaminating astrophysical foregrounds; these requirements are met by coupling the three high-throughput telescopes to novel multichroic lenslet-coupled pixels each measuring CMB photons in both linear polarization states over multiple spectral bands. We present the status of this instrument already under construction, and an analysis of its capabilities.
