アブストラクト: Gravitational lensing by large-scale-structure slightly perturbs the paths of CMB photons as they travel to us from the surface of last scattering. Although the effect is quite subtle, current experiments such as ACT, SPT, and Planck have the ability to detect this lensing at high significance, and even to make maps of the integrated line-of-sight matter distribution, with a kernel peaking at z ~ 2. Upcoming polarization experiments will do even better. I will review the methodology for lens reconstruction using CMB data, and discuss what we can expect from lensing in the near future.
