Instrumental systematics biases in CMB lensing reconstruction: a simulation-based assessment
Mark Mirmelstein, Giulio Fabbian, Antony Lewis +1
Weak gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is an important cosmological tool that allows us to learn about the structure, composition and evolution of the…
Optimal filtering for CMB lensing reconstruction
Mark Mirmelstein, Julien Carron, Antony Lewis
Upcoming ground-based cosmic microwave background experiments will provide CMB maps with high sensitivity and resolution that can be used for high fidelity lensing reconstruction.…
