Distortions of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature and polarization maps caused by gravitational lensing, observable with high angular resolution and high sensitivity, can be used to measure the neutrino mass. Assuming two massless species and one with mass m_nu we forecast sigma(m_nu) = 0.15 eV from the Planck satellite and sigma(m_nu)=0.04 eV from observations with twice the angular resolution and about 20 times the sensitivity. A detection is likely at this higher sensitivity since the observation of atmospheric neutrino oscillations require mass-squared differences greater than about (0.04 eV)^2.

Probing Long-Range Forces Between Neutrinos with Cosmic Structures
Neutrino long-range forces stronger than gravity would make the cosmic neutrino background collapse into bound states, and existing matter power spectrum and reionization data now exclude a band of couplings for force...
