Evidence of cross-correlation between the CMB lensing and the gamma-ray
  sky
  We report the measurement of the angular power spectrum of cross-correlation
between the unresolved component of the Fermi-LAT gamma-ray sky-maps and the
CMB lensing potential map reconstructed by the Planck satellite. The matter
distribution in the Universe determines the bending of light coming from the
last scattering surface. At the same time, the matter density drives the growth
history of astrophysical objects, including their capability at generating
non-thermal phenomena, which in turn give rise to gamma-ray emissions. The
Planck lensing map provides information on the integrated distribution of
matter, while the integrated history of gamma-ray emitters is imprinted in the
Fermi-LAT sky maps. We report here the first evidence of their correlation. We
find that the multipole dependence of the cross-correlation measurement is in
agreement with current models of the gamma-ray luminosity function for AGN and
star forming galaxies, with a statistical evidence of 3.0$\sigma$. Moreover,
its amplitude can in general be matched only assuming that these extra-galactic
emitters are also the bulk contribution of the measured isotopic gamma-ray
background (IGRB) intensity. This leaves little room for a big contribution
from galactic sources to the IGRB measured by Fermi-LAT, pointing toward a
direct evidence of the extragalactic origin of the IGRB.
