No deceleraon !

To be 1/f noise free !8 GroundBIRD’s scan strategy

Very large observing area GroundBIRD: 30% of full sky

Other ground-based (e.g. QUIET ~3%)

Effecvely, it is similar to the low earth orbit (LEO) scan of the satellite experiments.  GroundBIRD implements “Super-LEO” scan. 9 Eliminaon of 1/f noise effects  limits the scan range by the scan modulaon Usual le-right azimuth scan GroundBIRD’s high-speed (average scan speed: 3o/sec) rotaon scan (20 rpm)

60o

e.g., FOV 10o, EL 70o

o 60 Fast scan is the most promising way to eliminate 1/f noise effects GroundBIRD

Loss factor : A Detector’s 1/f noise A x Cl GroundBIRD maintains Δ fknee = 100 mHz No loss  A = 1 at l = 6 1/f-noise-free condion No 1/f noise (even w/o connuous rotaon of HWP) Loss factor : A

10 Average scan speed Another 1/f noise source Effects of atmospheric fluctuaon

Typical atmospheric fknee is ≈ Hz at Atacama Desert in Chile (5,000 m), whereas it is not polarized in our observaon frequency bands

Simulation assuming atmospheric fknee = 10 Hz, detector’s intrinsic fknee = 100 mHz

10% gain diff.

 Responses in Stokes’ Q Fourier scape Pair gain diff. induces the residual effects in polarizaon response. Calibraon is GB’s scan freq. (0.3 Hz) important ! 11 Calibraon during CMB observaon

Good demonstration by QUIET & ABS

Difference btw sky (10K) and sparse wires (300K) makes uniform polarizaon signals
