QUIET merges members of previous collaborations that have made successful polarization measurements of the CMB. These are: CAPMAP (Princeton, Chicago, Miami, JPL, MPI-Bonn), CBI (Caltech, Oxford), and QUaD (Stanford, Manchester). A group from Columbia, with lots of experience in CMB measurements, and a group from Oslo, with expertise in CMB data processing and analysis, complete the collaboration.
Members of the Japanese High Energy Physics Laboratory KEK have recently joined QUIET. This constitutes the first initiative into studies of the CMB in Japan. The group is currently building a setup for testing HEMT detectors and is bringing their extensive experience in data acquisition hardware and software to bear in QUIET.
Individuals at Berkeley, Goddard Space Flight Center, and Harvard-Smithsonian have also contributed.
