Abstract: Line intensity mapping (LIM) has emerged as a potent tool in astrophysics, enabling the statistical analysis of integrated spectral line emissions from distant star-forming galaxies. Despite its immense potential for diverse scientific goals, a critical challenge facing future LIM experiments is the differentiation of targeted spectral lines emitted at specific redshifts from undesired emissions originating at different redshifts. In this talk, I will discuss the fundamentals of multi-line intensity mapping and provide an overview of the observational status of LIM. Additionally, I will discuss how LIM observations can shed light on the different phases of the Universe, providing insights into both astrophysical and cosmological parameters.
