我们从Polarbear实验获得的宇宙微波背景(CMB)偏振数据中重建引力透镜会聚信号,并将其与赫歇尔卫星的宇宙红外背景图进行交叉相关。从交叉谱中,我们获得了CMB偏振的引力透镜的证据,统计显著性为4.0σ,并指示存在透镜B模式信号,显著性为2.3σ。我们证明,我们的结果是没有偏见的仪器和天体物理系统误差进行零测试,检查与模拟和真实的数据,和分析计算。通过强大的互相关通道进行的偏振透镜测量不仅加强了POLARBEAR自相关测量,而且也代表了将CMB偏振透镜建立为宇宙学和天体物理学的强大新探测器的早期步骤之一。
We reconstruct the gravitational lensing convergence signal from cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization data taken by the Polarbear experiment and cross-correlate it with cosmic infrared background maps from the Herschel satellite. From the cross spectra, we obtain evidence for gravitational lensing of the CMB polarization at a statistical significance of 4.0σ and indication of the presence of a lensing B-mode signal at a significance of 2.3σ. We demonstrate that our results are not biased by instrumental and astrophysical systematic errors by performing null tests, checks with simulated and real data, and analytical calculations. This measurement of polarization lensing, made via the robust cross-correlation channel, not only reinforces POLARBEAR auto-correlation measurements, but also represents one of the early steps towards establishing CMB polarization lensing as a powerful new probe of cosmology and astrophysics.
