Description
OLIMPO is a concept for a balloon-borne instrument to map the thermal and kinematic SZE at high signal-to-noise in a sample of nearby galaxy clusters and connecting bridges. In combination with X-ray data primarily from eROSITA and radio observations from SKA Pathfinders, OLIMPO will provide precise constraints on the turbulent and coherent velocities within the ICM due to structure growth over cosmic time. It will also determine the spatial distribution, thermodynamics, and velocity structure of the filamentary gas in the connecting bridges. I will provide an update on the status of OLIMPO, including recent lab-based measurements demonstrating the maturity of the kinetic inductance detector focal planes and other associated technologies along with scientific projections based on the analysis of existing SZE, X-ray, and radio data and mock OLIMPO observations.
