BICEP2 / Keck Array BICEP2 and Keck Array follow BICEP and probe more deeply in the polarization of the CMB.
BICEP3 BICEP3 will provide the most sensitive map of the CMB & polarized foregrounds at 95 GHz at the spatial scales where the imprint of primordial Inflation may be found. It is supported by The Office of the Chief Scientist & Chief Technologist.
Boomerang The continuing mission of the Boomerang project is to study the properties of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation (CMBR).
COMAP The CO Mapping Array Pathfinder (COMAP) will open a new window on both the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) and the Epoch of Galaxy Assembly by using carbon monoxide (CO) lines to trace the distribution of star-forming galaxies in both epochs.
Dark Energy Survey (DES) DES is a optical survey that covers 5000 square degree of the sky and aims at constraining dark energy through weak lensing, SN1A, galaxy clusters, and baryonic acoustic oscillations.
Euclid Euclid is a mission designed to study "dark energy", the hypothesized cause of the Universe's accelerated expansion. I am a member of the NASA-funded Euclid Science Team.
FIRS (Far Infrared Surveyor) The Far Infrared Surveyor is a large cryogenic space telescope envisioned as a follow-on to the Spitzer Space Telescope (Spitzer) and the Herschel Space Observatory.
GEMP Galactic Emission Mapping Project (GEMP) is a project located in Portugal aimed at mapping the polarised galactic emission at 5GHz and 10GHz.
Herschel The Herschel Space Observatory was a space-based telescope that studied the Universe in the light of the far-infrared and submillimeter portions of the spectrum.
