NEW RESULTS FROM THE ATACAMA COSMOLOGY TELESCOPE |
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) observed the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) from the Chilean Andes from 2007-2010. In this talk, the speaker will summarize the 148 and 220 GHz power spectra and cosmological constraints derived from the full three seasons of data. He will also discuss the recent results in the exciting field of gravitational lensing of the CMB, and touch upon future prospects with ACTPol, the polarization sensitive version of ACT that is due to come online in immediate future. |
