Abstract

Abstract We present cosmological constraints from a gravitational lensing mass map covering 9400 deg 2 reconstructed from measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) made by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) from 2017 to 2021. In combination with measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations and big bang nucleosynthesis, we obtain the clustering amplitude σ 8 = 0.819 ± 0.015 at 1.8% precision, S 8 ≡ σ 8 ( Ω m / 0.3 ) 0.5 = 0.840 ± 0.028 , and the Hubble constant H 0 = (68.3 ± 1.1) km s −1 Mpc −1 at 1.6% precision. A joint constraint with Planck CMB lensing yields σ 8 = 0.812 ± 0.013, S 8 ≡ σ 8 ( Ω m / 0.3 ) 0.5 = 0.831 ± 0.023 , and H 0 =…
