"The Effects of Gravitational Lensing of the CMB Anisotropies"


Matias Zaldarriaga
New York University

Abstract:

Gravitational lensing distorts the pattern of CMB anisotropies. I will discuss the effect in different limits. I will describe how lensing can be detected by the non-gaussianities it induces in the maps.
