Abstract： Cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) observations are unavoidably contaminated by emission from various extra-galactic foregrounds, which must be removed to obtain reliable measurements of the cosmological signal. In this paper, we demonstrate CMB lensing reconstruction in AliCPT-1 after foreground removal, combine the two bands of AliCPT-1 (90 and 150~GHz) with Planck HFI bands (100, 143, 217 and 353~GHz) and with the WMAP-K band (23~GHz). In order to balance contamination by instrumental noise and foreground residual bias, we adopt the Needlet Internal Linear Combination (NILC) method to clean the E-map and the constrained Internal Linear Combination (cILC) method to clean the B-map. The latter utilizes additional constraints on average frequency scaling of the dust and synchrotron to remove foregrounds at the expense of somewhat noisier maps. Assuming 4 modules observing 1 season from simulation data, the resulting effective residual noise in E- and B-map are roughly $15~\mu{\rm K}\cdot{\rm arcmin}$ and $25~\mu{\rm K}\cdot{\rm arcmin}$, respectively. As a result, the CMB lensing reconstruction signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from polarization data is about SNR$\,\approx\,$4.5. This lensing reconstruction capability is comparable to that of other stage-III small aperture millimeter CMB telescopes.

Abstract：In this paper, we will give a general introduction to the project of Ali CMB Polarization Tele-scope (AliCPT), which is a Sino-US joint project led by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) and has involved many di erent institutes in China. It is the rst ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiment in China and an integral part of China's Gravitational Waves Program. The main scienti c goal of AliCPT project is to probe the primor-dial gravitational waves (PGWs) originated from the very early Universe. The AliCPT project includes two stages. The rst stage referred to as AliCPT-1, is to build a telescope in the Ali region of Tibet with an altitude of 5,250 meters. Once completed, it will be the worldwide highest ground-based CMB observatory and open a new window for probing PGWs in northern hemisphere. AliCPT-1 telescope is designed to have about 7,000 TES detectors at 90GHz and 150GHz. The second stage is to have a more sensitive telescope (AliCPT-2) with the number of detectors more than 20,000. Our simulations show that AliCPT will improve the current constraint on the tensor-to-scalar ratio r by one order of magnitude with 3 years' observation. Besides the PGWs, the AliCPT will also enable a precise measurement on the CMB rotation angle and provide a precise test on the CPT symmetry. We show 3 years' observation will improve the current limit by two order of magnitude.
