We describe a tomographic dissection of the Planck CMB lensing data, cross-correlating this map with galaxies in different ranges of photometric redshift. We use the nearly all-sky 2MPZ and WISExSCOS catalogues for z<0.35, extending to z<0.6 using SDSS. We describe checks for consistency between the different datasets, and perform a test for possible leakage of thermal Sunyaev--Zeldovich signal into our cross-correlation measurements. The amplitude of the cross-correlation allows us to estimate the evolution of density fluctuations as a function of redshift, thus providing a test of theories of modified gravity. Assuming the common parametrisation for the logarithmic growth rate, f_g=Omega_m(z)^gamma, we infer gamma=0.77 +/- 0.18 when Omega_m is fixed using external data. Thus CMB lensing tomography is currently consistent with Einstein gravity, where gamma=0.55 is expected. We discuss how such constraints may be expected to improve with future data.
We measure the cross-correlation between the galaxy density in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Science Verification data and the lensing of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) as reconstructed with the Planck satellite and the South Pole Telescope (SP
Any Dark Energy (DE) or Modified Gravity (MG) model that deviates from a cosmological constant requires a consistent treatment of its perturbations, which can be described in terms of an effective entropy perturbation and an anisotropic stress. We ha
We seek to clarify the origin of constraints on the dark energy equation of state parameter from CMB lensing tomography, that is the combination of galaxy clustering and the cross-correlation of galaxies with CMB lensing in a number of redshift bins.
The amplitude of cosmological density fluctuations, sigma_8, has been studied and estimated by analysing many cosmological observations. The values of the estimates vary considerably between the various probes. However, different estimators probe the
Low Density Points (LDPs, citet{2019ApJ...874....7D}), obtained by removing high-density regions of observed galaxies, can trace the Large-Scale Structures (LSSs) of the universe. In particular, it offers an intriguing opportunity to detect weak grav
