QuijoteCMB

Two telescopes and three instruments dedicated to measure the polarization of the microwave sky in the frequency range 11-40 GHz and at angular scales of 1°.

The proposed FY26 budget will be devastating for NASA science with a nearly 50% cut: 11 NASA astrophysics missions face risk of cancellation https://t.co/mLdLP7A34D

Open Doors Days at Teide Observatory! Speaking about the science to be done with @QuijoteCMB within the #RadioForegroundsPlus project!

[Prof. Brian Keating @Briankeating]

Wow. Huge, sad news in the Cosmic Microwave Background world:

“The NSF Director has determined that the South Pole is essentially closed for any significant new construction of scientific equipment beyond what is already committed for at least the next 10 years, declines to approve moving CMB-S4 into the Major Facilities Design Stage.”

Since S4’s project plan includes the South Pole as a key element, it is now deemed to be nonviable.

@QuijoteCMB observes a first hint of polarisation from the Haze, a mysterious excess of microwaves at the Galactic centre. Previously the Haze was detected by WMAP and @Planck in intensity. See Guidi et al. https://t.co/gQavcY6p9F @RAS_Journals @IAC_Astrofisica @radioforeground
