Lensing Reconstruction Details!
•  Lensing changes known isotropic and Gaussian statistics:
introduces non-Gaussian correlations!
!
!
•  So: measure lensing by looking for these non-Gaussian
correlations in the CMB two-point function!

How Much Neff Does it Contribute?!

temperature, the particle
misses out on lots of energy

A Potential Problem: Uncertain CIB Spectra!
170!
•  Say we have a measurement of CIB delensed B-mode
power. Now constrain r, using model for delensed B-
mode power:!
!
!
!
•  Problem: residual lensing B-mode power depends on the
CIB spectra! If CIB spectra are poorly constrained, this
can be confused with r.!
•  With Planck measurements of , do we know the CIB
spectra well enough?!

•  Don’t assume CIB spectra
known: parametrize CIB
generally, constrain with
Planck+BB!
•  Constrain r marginalized
over CIB spectra, i.e., their
parameters ai!
•  Fisher matrix formalism:
marginalizing over CIB
spectra does not degrade
