Evidence of Lensing of the Cosmic Microwave Background by Dark Matter Halos

Mathew Madhavacheril, Neelima Sehgal, Rupert Allison +40

We present evidence of the gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background by solar mass dark matter halos. Lensing convergence maps from the Atacama Cosmology T…

CMBPol Mission Concept Study: Foreground Science Knowledge and Prospects

A. A. Fraisse, J. -A. C. Brown, G. Dobler +10

We report on our knowledge of Galactic foregrounds, as well as on how a CMB satellite mission aiming at detecting a primordial B-mode signal (CMBPol) will contribute to improving i…
