- CMB polarization -- physics and observational
status
- Introduction to CMB lensing
- Lensing reconstruction and non-Gaussian aspects
Résumé
I
will
cover
the
physics
of
CMB polarization,
the latest observational results and future prospects. I will then
discuss weak gravitational lensing of the CMB including the motivation
for its study, effects on the power spectra, lensing reconstruction and
non-Gaussian aspects. I will also discuss the current observational
status of CMB lensing and future prospects.
