Design and characterization of the Large-aperture Experiment to Detect the Dark Age (LEDA) radiometer systems [PDF]
, 2017 The Large-Aperture Experiment to Detect the Dark Age (LEDA) was designed to detect the predicted O(100)mK sky-averaged absorption of the Cosmic Microwave Background by Hydrogen in the neutral pre- and intergalactic medium just after the cosmological Dark

Empirical model for backscattering polarimetric variables in rain at W-band: motivation and implications [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement TechniquesThe established relationships between the size, shape, and terminal velocity of raindrops, along with the spheroidal shape approximation (SSA), are commonly employed for calculating radar observables in rain.

Radiometers and Radiometers [PDF]
Nature, 1876 I HAVE recently been trying some experiments with a radiometer, obtained from Mr. Browning, and as some of my results are different from what I was led to anticipate, I should like to know whether there is anything special in my particular instrument, or whether other people have noticed the same things.

Structure in the COBE differential microwave radiometer first-year maps
, 1992 Results of the first year of data from the differential microwave radiometers on the Cosmic Background Explorer are presented. Statistically significant structure that is well described as scale-invariant fluctuations with a Gaussian distribution is ...
