abstract

We present the first measurement of cross-correlation between the lensing potential, reconstructed from cosmic microwave background (CMB) {\it polarization} data, and the cosmic shear field from galaxy shapes. This measurement is made using data from the POLARBEAR CMB experiment and the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey. By analyzing an 11~deg$^2$ overlapping region, we reject the null hypothesis at 3.5$\sigma$\ and constrain the amplitude of the {\bf cross-spectrum} to $\widehat{A}_{\rm lens}=1.70\pm 0.48$, where $\widehat{A}_{\rm lens}$ is the amplitude normalized with respect to the Planck~2018{} prediction, based on the flat $\Lambda$ cold dark matter cosmology. The first measurement of this {\bf cross-spectrum} without relying on CMB temperature measurements is possible due to the deep POLARBEAR map with a noise level of ${\sim}$6\,$\mu$K-arcmin, as well as the deep HSC data with a high galaxy number density of $n_g=23\,{\rm arcmin^{-2}}$. We present a detailed study of the systematics budget to show that residual systematics in our results are negligibly small, which demonstrates the future potential of this cross-correlation technique.

  1. Bias to CMB lensing from lensed foregrounds

    astro-ph.CO 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Lensed extragalactic foregrounds create a percent-level bias in CMB lensing estimators that is significant for upcoming Simons Observatory measurements and can be reduced by modified estimators.

  2. Tomographic analyses of the CMB lensing and galaxy clustering to probe the linear structure growth

    astro-ph.CO 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Tomographic cross-correlation of Planck CMB lensing with SCUSS/SDSS/WISE galaxies yields a linear growth amplitude A_D = 1.16 ± 0.13, consistent with ΛCDM.
