Characterization of the BICEP Telescope for High-Precision Cosmic Microwave Background Polarimetry [PDF]
Astrophys.J.711:1141-1156,2010, 2009 The BICEP experiment was designed specifically to search for the signature of inflationary gravitational waves in the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Using a novel small-aperture refractor and 49 pairs of polarization-sensitive bolometers, BICEP has completed 3 years of successful observations at the South Pole beginning in 2006 ...

Supraspinal Fatigue Impedes Recovery From a Low-Intensity Sustained Contraction in Old Adults [PDF]
, 2011 This study determined the contribution of supraspinal fatigue and contractile properties to the age difference in neuromuscular fatigue during and recovery from a low-intensity sustained contraction.

CMB polarimetry with BICEP: instrument characterization, calibration, and performance [PDF]
Proc. SPIE, Vol. 7020, 70201D (2008), 2008 BICEP is a ground-based millimeter-wave bolometric array designed to target the primordial gravity wave signature on the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at degree angular scales. Currently in its third year of operation at the South Pole, BICEP is measuring the CMB polarization with unprecedented sensitivity at 100 and 150 GHz in ...

New constraint on the tensor-to-scalar ratio from the $Planck$ and BICEP/Keck Array data using the profile likelihood [PDF]
, 2022 We derive a new upper bound on the tensor-to-scalar ratio parameter $r$ using the frequentist profile likelihood method. We vary all the relevant cosmological parameters of the $\Lambda$CDM model, as well as the nuisance parameters. Unlike the Bayesian analysis using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), our analysis is independent of the choice of priors ...

Biomechanical Comparison of Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis Onlay Techniques
Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2019 Background: Subpectoral biceps tenodesis can be performed with cortical fixation using different repair techniques. The goal of this technique is to obtain a strong and stable reduction of biceps tendon in an anatomic position.

Absolute polarization angle calibration using polarized diffuse Galactic emission observed by BICEP [PDF]
, 2010 We present a method of cross-calibrating the polarization angle of a polarimeter using BICEP Galactic observations. \bicep\ was a ground based experiment using an array of 49 pairs of polarization sensitive bolometers observing from the geographic South Pole at 100 and 150 GHz.

Probing CPT Violation with CMB Polarization Measurements [PDF]
Phys.Lett.B687:129-132,2010, 2009 The electrodynamics modified by the Chern-Simons term $\mathcal{L}_{cs}\sim p_{\mu}A_{\nu}\tilde F^{\mu\nu}$ with a non-vanishing $p_{\mu}$ violates the {\it Charge-Parity-Time Reversal} symmetry (CPT) and rotates the linear polarizations of the propagating {\it Cosmic Microwave Background} (CMB) photons.

BiCurNet: Pre-Movement EEG based Neural Decoder for Biceps Curl Trajectory Estimation [PDF]
, 2023 Kinematic parameter (KP) estimation from early electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is essential for positive augmentation using wearable robot. However, work related to early estimation of KPs from surface EEG is sparse. In this work, a deep learning-based model, BiCurNet, is presented for early estimation of biceps curl using collected EEG signal.

The biceps tendon footprint [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica, 2005 By arthroscopy, we observed a phenomenon that, according to our knowledge not previously described, we call the "biceps tendon footprint" (BTF)--an area of chondromalacia beside the bicipital groove.We studied 118 shoulder arthroscopies prospectively. We documented whether a BTF could be observed and what the main pathology associated with it was.
