Lens Effect and CMB Anisotropies: Simulations

2003

Cosmological structures deviate the photons of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). The resulting deviations can be calculated moving photons in the gravitational field of realistic lens distributions obtained from numerical simulations. The main goal of this paper is answering the following question: Which types of numerical simulations are appropriate to study angular CMB deformations caused by lensing?
