| Abstract | The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS) is uniquely built to probe the largest angular scales in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization from its high site in Chile’s Atacama Desert. It has already produced polarization maps of 75% of the sky. This award supports observations and data analysis to develop instrumentation, observing strategies, and analysis techniques to understand and reduce systematic errors while increasing the sensitivity of the surveyor.
