4. OLIMPO Is the combination of –A large (2.6m diameter) mm/sub-mm telescope with scanning capabilities –A multifrequency array of bolometers –A precision attitude control system –A long duration balloon flight The results will be high resolution (arcmin) sensitive maps of the mm/sub-mm sky, with optimal frequency coverage (150, 220, 340, 540 GHz) for SZ detection, Determination of Cluster parameters and control of foreground/background contamination.

8. OLIMPO observations of a SZ Cluster Simulated observation of a SZ cluster at 2 mm with the Olimpo array. The large scale signals are CMB anisotropy. The cluster is the dark spot evident in the middle of the figure. Parameters of this observation: scans at 1 o /s, amplitude of the scans 3 o p-p, detector noise 150 mK s 1/2, 1/f knee = 0.1 Hz, total observing time = 4 hours, comptonization parameter for the cluster y=10 -4. 3o3o 3o3o

9. The peculiarity of OLIMPO OLIMPO measures in 4 frequency bands simultaneously. These bands optimally sample the spectrum of the SZ effect. This allows us to clean the signal from any dust and CMB contamination, and even to measure Te by means of the relativistic corrections.

10. Simulations show that: For a –Y=10 -5 cluster, –in a dust optical depth of 10 -5 @ 1 mm, –In presence of a 100 K CMB anisotropy In 2 hours of integration over 1 square degree of sky centered on the cluster –Y can be determined to +10 -6, – T CMB can be measured to +10K –T e can be measured to +3keV ask Luca Conversi for details.

11. Clusters sample We have selected 40 nearby rich clusters to be measured in a single long duration flight. For all these clusters high quality data are (or will be) available from XMM/Chandra Number Cluster z Number Cluster z 1 A168 0.0452 11 A1317 0.0695 2 A400 0.0232 12 A1367 0.0215 3 A426 0.0183 13 A1656 0.0232 4 A539 0.0205 14 A1775 0.0696 5 A576 0.0381 15 A1795 0.0616 6 A754 0.0528 16 A2151 0.0371 7 A1060 0.0114 17 A2199 0.0303 8 A1185 0.0304 18 A2256 0.0601 9 A1215 0.0494 19 A2319 0.0564 10 A1254 0.0628 20 A2634 0.0312

12. Corrections For each cluster, applying deprojection algorithms to the SZ and X images (see eg Zaroubi et al. 1999), and assuming hydrostatic equilibrium, it is possible to derive the gas profile and the total (including dark) mass of the cluster. The presence of 4 channels (and especially the 1.3 mm one) is used to estimate the peculiar velocity of the cluster. Both these effects have be monitored in order to correct the determination of H o (see e.g. Holtzapfel et al. 1997). It should be stressed that residual systematics, i.e. cluster morphology and small-scale clumping, have opposite effects in the determination of H o Despite the relative large scatter of results for a single cluster, we expect to be able to measure H o to 5% accuracy from our 40 clusters sample.

13. The XMM-LSS and MEGACAM survey region is centered at dec=-5 deg and RA=2h20', and covers 8 o x8 o. It is observable in a trans-mediterranean flight, like the one we will do to qualify OLIMPO. During the test flight we will observe the target region for 2 hours at good elevation, without interference from the moon and the sun. Assuming 19 detectors working for each frequency channel, and a conservative noise of 150  K CMB s 1/2, we can have as many as 5600 independent 8' pixels with a noise per pixel of 7  K CMB for each of the 2 and 1.4 mm bands. Olimpo vs XMM The correlations could provide:  Relative behavior of clusters (Dark Matter) potential, galaxies and clusters X-ray gas.  Detailed tests of structure formation models.  Cosmological parameters and structure formation

14. Taking advantage of its high angular resolution, and concentrating on a limited area of the sky, OLIMPO will be able to measure the angular power spectrum (PS) of the CMB up to multipoles l 3000, significantly higher than BOOMERanG, MAP and Planck. In this way it will complement at high frequencies the interferometers surveys, producing essential independent information, in a wide frequency interval, and free from systematics like sources subtraction. The measurement of the damping tail of the PS is an excellent way to map the dark matter distribution (4) and to measure  darkmatter (5). Olimpo: CMB anisotropy Compare! Power Spectrum (a.u.)

15. mm/sub-mm backgrounds Diffuse cosmological emission in the mm/sub- mm is largely unexplored. A cosmic far IR background (FIRB) has been discovered by COBE-FIRAS (Puget, Hauser, Fixsen) It is believed to be produced by ultra- luminous early galaxies (Blain astroph/0202228) Strong, negative k- correction at mm and sub-mm wavelengths enhances the detection rate of these early galaxies at high redshift.

16. mm/sub-mm galaxies Blain, astro-ph/0202228 B z = 0 B z > 0    (1+z) In the sub-mm we are in the steeply rising part of the emission spectrum: if the galaxy is moved at high redshift we will see emission from a rest-frame wavelength closer to the peak of emission.

17. Olimpo: Cold Cirrus Dust Sub-mm observations of cirrus clouds in our Galaxy are very effective in measuring the temperature and mass of the dust clouds. See Masi et al. Ap.J. 553, L93-L96, 2001; and Masi et al. “Interstellar dust in the BOOMERanG maps”, in “BC2K1”, De Petris and Gervasi editors, AIP 616, 2001.

20. Olimpo: The Primary mirror The primary mirror (2.6m) has been built and verified. It is the largest mirror ever flown on a stratospheric balloon. It is slowly wobbled to scan the sky.

21. The dewar is being developed in Rome. It is based on the same successfull design of the BOOMERanG dewar (6,7) Ask Lavinia Nati / Martino Calvo for details. Olimpo: technical solutions

22. The cryogenic reimaging optics is being developed in Rome. It is mounted in the experiment section of the cryostat, at 2K, while the bolometers are cooled at 0.3K. Extensive baffling and a cold Lyot stop reduce significantly straylight and sidelobes. Olimpo: reimaging optics

23. The Cardiff group has agreed to provide bolometer arrays and dichroics for the multiband focal plane. We will mount 4 arrays at 2.0, 1.4, 0.85, 0.50 mm of central wavelength, with 19, 37, 91, 293 detectors respectively. Each array will fill the optically correct area of the focal plane (about 0.5 o in diameter projected in the sky). A photo of a micromachined array element and a photo of a typical full wafer are visible in the figures. TES (transition edge superconductors) at 300 mK will sense the temperature variations of a small island in the Silicon Nitride wafer; radiative power sampled by a planar antenna will be transferred to the island by means of superconducting striplines.

28. Current situation: After a few years of low level funding, ASI has finally classified OLIMPO as a new project 2 years ago, and has frozen funding. We are working hard to have it flown in 2005 for the test flight. We are also working to develop LDB flightts from SVALBARD
