Characterization of Detectors and Instrument Systematics for the SPIDER CMB Polarimeter
<p>We know from the CMB and observations of large-scale structure that the universe is extremely flat, homogenous, and isotropic. The current favored mechanism for generating these characteristics is inflation, a theorized period of exponential expansion of the universe that occurred shortly a...
