Abstract

Information about the late-time Universe is imprinted on the small-scale CMB as photons travel to us from the surface of last scattering. Several processes are at play and small-scale fluctuations are very rich and non-Gaussian in nature. I will review some recent and exciting results that use the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effects and gravitational lensing to paint a full picture of the visible and dark matter in and around DESI galaxies. I will discuss how a combination of measurements can probe velocity fields at cosmological distances and inform us on galaxy energetics. I will also show recent measurements of weak lensing of the CMB and its cross-correlation with DESI, and how they can help us interpret intriguing discrepancies in cosmological parameters between the high and low redshift Universe.
