If the linear polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is rotated in a frequency-independent manner as it propagates from the surface of last scatter, it may introduce a B-mode polarization. Here I show that measurement of higher-order TE, EE, EB, and TB correlations induced by this rotation can be used to reconstruct the rotation angle as a function of position on the sky. This technique can be used to distinguish primordial B modes from those induced by rotation. The effects of rotation can be distinguished geometrically from similar effects due to cosmic shear.

Planck PR4 (NPIPE) map-space cosmic birefringence
A map-space stacking analysis of Planck PR4 maps finds a CMB polarization rotation angle of about 0.46 to 0.48 degrees, dominated by instrument calibration uncertainty and consistent with no parity-violating cosmic bi...
