20 sis steps outlined in the previous section. Figure 3 shows the results of this calculation. The recovered convergence power spectrum is shown in red, while the input convergence power spectrum is shown in black. The analysis pipeline accurately recovers the input power spectrum, within measured errors. With Sudeep Das, Blake Sherwin, CS82 and ACT collaborations V. RESULTS A. The CMB Lensing - Galaxy Lensing Cross Power Spectrum The cross power spectrum of the ACT CMB lensing and CS82 galaxy lensing convergence maps is shown in Fig. 4. bars for both spectra are computed from Monte Carlo estimates, as before. SHEAR X CMB CROSS-CORRELATIONS VI. Hand, AL et al CONCLUSIONS B. Null Tests We verify our pipeline and measured cross power spectrum with a series of null tests. We use 480 Monte Carlo realizations of simulated CMB lensing maps (containing signal and realistic noise), and compute the cross power spectrum of the true CS82 convergence field with these realizations. The mean of these spectra is shown in the top panel of Fig. 5 and as expected, the result is consistent with null, with a (slightly high) 2 = 10.0 for 5 degrees of freedom for a null fit. We also compute the mean cross power spectrum between the true ACT convergence field and 500 realizations of randomized shear maps (described in Section III). Shown in the center panel of Fig. 5, this mean correlation is also consistent with zero, with First detection of CMB x galaxy lensing cross-correlation! 3σ FIG. 4. The CMB lensing - galaxy lensing convergence cross power spectrum (red points), measured using ACT and CS82 data. Error bars are computed using Monte Carlo methods (see text), and the significance of the detection of the cross power spectrum is 3.1. Adjacent data points are 10% anticorrelated. The solid black line is the expected power spectrum assuming the best-fit Planck + WP + highl + BAO cosmological model. ACT Kappa map Galaxy Kappa map from CS82 (Stripe 82)
