How about BICEP2 Keck Array BICEP3 South Pole 2010-2016 On 3/21/14, 8:09 PM, Sarah Stokes Kernasovskiy wrote: -- ___________________________________________________________________ John Kovac jmkovac(a)cfa.harvard.edu Associate Professor, Harvard University Astronomy Department 160 Concord Ave rm 310, Cambridge MA 02138, 617-496-0611

I love the design! Looks great. I would like to see designs without the "+". Whatever small changes you end up going with, I will love it. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone

Dear All, I've been asked to do a couple of articles relating to my experiences working at Pole deploying the BICEP2 instrument. One will be a personal profile in the Naturejobs blog for the Nature Publishing Group, the other will an article for the The Conversation, see https://theconversation.com/uk. Neither are really asking for the science aspect (I'm hardly qualified to answer). Both are UK organizations and contacted me for obvious reasons. It is not proper to write these without some mention by name of the others who were there, particularly the second article. I will also intend to send a selection of photographs, some of the Pole in general, some with people working on the instrument integration (nothing embarrassing). I don't know yet which they will choose. Is there any objection from you folk, especially Phil, Jon, Walt, Randol, Justus or Angiola? John, are there any official restrictions or embargoes imposed by the NSF or USAP? I will be sure to credit them (I really do still want a winter-over) and also The Moore Foundation and Keck Foundation. Please respond early today if you can, The Conversation wants a copy today to try and publish tomorrow. I would dearly love to mention the Hienostat but will exercise great restraint. Clem, a piece in the The Mail following your Newsnight interview created quite a stir for all the wrong reasons. Have you been following? For the first time ever, I felt compelled to write a letter to The Guardian. They may or may not print it. Finally, here is a link to the press release from Cardiff University following the cfa Harvard news break: http://www.astro.cardiff.ac.uk/newsandevents/?page=news_detail&news=0157 This was released to the UK media. Cheers, Rashmi

Hi John, Many thanks for this. I'd already sent a copy of the FAQ to Chris North (our resident AIG outreach chappy and a reporter on the BBC's Sky At Night program - nice to have contacts!) as he was filming a piece for BBC Wales (counting sheep ... I wonder if they can read as well?) last week. I await responses from the other cohorts who were at Pole for permission to use their names in vain. Your tenure is surely assured. BICEP3: we should talk. But don't tell Peter. Cheers, Rashmi At 13:46 23/03/2014, John Kovac wrote:

John, Clem, Jamie, Chao-Lin, When will we see one of you on The Daily Show or the Cobert Report? If Mark Devlin can do it (he was here last week) so can you. Rashmi At 19:21 23/03/2014, John Kovac wrote:

Instead of sending the one of the B2 foursome, which is what people usually do, I think we should send someone as remote to Bicep2 as possible, but still have good connection with the experiment. Someone dignified but possesses an acute sense of humor. I am voting for Rashmi! -Hien On Mar 23, 2014, at 12:30 PM, "Rashmi V.

Did anyone listen to the rest of the show, and was the result mentioned more directly? (Would be awesome if BICEP2 were in a quiz question.)
