Description
Line intensity mapping has emerged as a promising method of probing large-scale structure and star formation over cosmic time. At mm wavelengths there are a number of lines including [CII] and CO which are being targeted by current and upcoming experiments. Measuring [CII] in the 200-300 GHz range will allow us to probe the Epoch of Reionization, while the measurement of CO in these wavelength ranges will measure molecular gas at the peak of start formation ~z = 2. Future high sensitivity measurements of lines in the mm wavelength range may allow us to probe cosmology at high redshifts using new observables.
