Integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) measurements, which involve cross-correlating the CMB with the foreground large-scale structure (e.g. galaxies/quasars), have proven to be an interesting probe of dark energy. We show that magnification bias,…
The integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect describes how photons are gravitationally redshifted, producing anisotropies in the Cosmic Microwave Background. We study the inverse problem and show that primordial gravitational perturbations, in…
