Constraints on Lensing Observables<br />
• Lensing observables in T,E are limited by <strong>CMB</strong> sample variance<br />
• Lensing observables in B are limited by lens sample variance<br />
• B-modes require 10x as much sky at high signal-to-noise or<br />
3x as much sky at the optimal signal-to-noise with ∆ P=4.7uK'<br />
f sky 1/2 σ(Θ1)<br />
f sky 1/2 σ(Θ2)<br />
