Detection of B-mode Polarization in the Cosmic Microwave Background with Data from the South Pole Telescope
Gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background generates a curl pattern in the observed polarization. This "B-mode" signal provides a measure of the projected mass distribution over the entire observable Universe and also acts as a contaminant for the measurement of primordial gr...
