We measure the cross-correlation between galaxy groups constructed from DESI Legacy Imaging Survey DR8 and Planck CMB lensing, over overlapping sky area of 16876 $rm deg^2$. The detections are significant and consistent with the expected signal of the large scale structure of the universe, over group samples of various redshift, mass and richness $N_{rm g}$ and over various scale cuts. The overall S/N is 39 for a conservative sample with $N_{rm g}geq 5$, and increases to $48$ for the sample with $N_{rm g}geq 2$. Adopting the Planck 2018 cosmology, we constrain the density bias of groups with $N_{rm g}geq 5$ as $b_{rm g}=1.31pm 0.10$, $2.22pm 0.10$, $3.52pm 0.20$ at $0.1<zleq 0.33$, $0.33<zleq 0.67$, $0.67<zleq1$ respectively. The value-added group catalog allows us to detect the dependence of bias on group mass with high significance. It also allows us to compare the measured bias with the theoretically predicted one using the estimated group mass. We find excellent agreement for the two high redshift bins. However, it is lower than the theory by $sim 3sigma$ for the lowest redshift bin. Another interesting finding is the significant impact of the thermal Sunyaev Zeldovich (tSZ). It contaminates the galaxy group-CMB lensing cross-correlation at $sim 30%$ level, and must be deprojected first in CMB lensing reconstruction.

Cross-correlations between the lensing of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and other tracers of large-scale structure provide a unique way to reconstruct the growth of dark matter, break degeneracies between cosmology and galaxy physics, and tes
t theories of modified gravity. We detect a cross-correlation between DESI-like luminous red galaxies (LRGs) selected from DECaLS imaging and CMB lensing maps reconstructed with the Planck satellite at a significance of $S/N = 27.2$ over scales $ell_{rm min} = 30$, $ell_{rm max} = 1000$. To correct for magnification bias, we determine the slope of the LRG cumulative magnitude function at the faint limit as $s = 0.999 pm 0.015$, and find corresponding corrections on the order of a few percent for $C^{kappa g}_{ell}, C^{gg}_{ell}$ across the scales of interest. We fit the large-scale galaxy bias at the effective redshift of the cross-correlation $z_{rm eff} approx 0.68$ using two different bias evolution agnostic models: a HaloFit times linear bias model where the bias evolution is folded into the clustering-based estimation of the redshift kernel, and a Lagrangian perturbation theory model of the clustering evaluated at $z_{rm eff}$. We also determine the error on the bias from uncertainty in the redshift distribution; within this error, the two methods show excellent agreement with each other and with DESI survey expectations.
We present the first study of cross-correlation between Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) gravitational lensing potential map measured by the $Planck$ satellite and $zgeq 0.8$ galaxies from the photometric redshift catalogues from Herschel Extragalac
tic Legacy Project (HELP), divided into four sky patches: NGP, Herschel Stripe-82 and two halves of SGP field, covering in total $sim 660$ deg$^{2}$ of the sky. Contrary to previous studies exploiting only the common area between galaxy surveys and CMB lensing data, we improve the cross-correlation measurements using the full available area of the CMB lensing map. We estimate galaxy linear bias parameter, $b$, from joint analysis of cross-power spectrum and galaxy auto-power spectrum using Maximum Likelihood Estimation technique to obtain the value averaged over four fields as $b=2.06_{-0.02}^{+0.02}$, ranging from $1.94_{-0.03}^{+0.04}$ for SGP Part-2 to $3.03_{-0.09}^{+0.10}$ for NGP. We also estimate the amplitude of cross-correlation and find the averaged value to be $A=0.52_{-0.08}^{+0.08}$ spanning from $0.34_{-0.19}^{+0.19}$ for NGP to $0.67_{-0.20}^{+0.21}$ for SGP Part-1 respectively, significantly lower than expected value for the standard cosmological model. We perform several tests on systematic errors that can account for this discrepancy. We find that lower amplitude could be to some extent explained by the lower value of median redshift of the catalogue, however, we do not have any evidence that redshifts are systematically overestimated.
The lensing convergence measurable with future CMB surveys like CMB-S4 will be highly correlated with the clustering observed by deep photometric large scale structure (LSS) surveys such as the LSST, with cross-correlation coefficient as high as 95%.
This will enable use of sample variance cancellation techniques to determine cosmological parameters, and use of cross-correlation measurements to break parameter degeneracies. Assuming large sky overlap between CMB-S4 and LSST, we show that a joint analysis of CMB-S4 lensing and LSST clustering can yield very tight constraints on the matter amplitude $sigma_8(z)$, halo bias, and $f_mathrm{NL}$, competitive with the best stage IV experiment predictions, but using complementary methods, which may carry different and possibly lower systematics. Having no sky overlap between experiments degrades the precision of $sigma_8(z)$ by a factor of 20, and that of $f_mathrm{NL}$ by a factor of 1.5 to 2. Without CMB lensing, the precision always degrades by an order of magnitude or more, showing that a joint analysis is critical. Our results also suggest that CMB lensing in combination with LSS photometric surveys is a competitive probe of the evolution of structure in the redshift range $zsimeq 1-7$, probing a regime that is not well tested observationally. We explore predictions against other surveys and experiment configurations, finding that wide patches with maximal sky overlap between CMB and LSS surveys are most powerful for $sigma_8(z)$ and $f_mathrm{NL}$.
We measure the cross-correlation of cosmic microwave background lensing convergence maps derived from Atacama Cosmology Telescope data with galaxy lensing convergence maps as measured by the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Stripe 82 Survey. The CMB-ga
laxy lensing cross power spectrum is measured for the first time with a significance of 4.2{sigma}, which corresponds to a 12% constraint on the amplitude of density fluctuations at redshifts ~ 0.9. With upcoming improved lensing data, this novel type of measurement will become a powerful cosmological probe, providing a precise measurement of the mass distribution at intermediate redshifts and serving as a calibrator for systematic biases in weak lensing measurements.
Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is a powerful probe to study the early universe and various cosmological models. Weak gravitational lensing affects the CMB by changing its power spectrum, but meanwhile, it also carries information about the distrib
ution of lensing mass and hence, the large scale structure (LSS) of the universe. When studies of the CMB is combined with the tracers of LSS, one can constrain cosmological models, models of LSS development and astrophysical parameters simultaneously. The main focus of this project is to study the cross-correlations between CMB lensing and the galaxy matter density to constrain the galaxy bias ($b$) and the amplitude scaling parameter ($A$), to test the validity of $Lambda$CDM model. We test our approach for simulations of the Planck CMB convergence field and galaxy density field, which mimics the density field of the Herschel Extragalactic Legacy Project (HELP). We use maximum likelihood method to constrain the parameters.
