We analyse the large-scale clustering of the Luminous Red Galaxy (LRG) and Quasar (QSO) sample from the first data release (DR1) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). In particular, we constrain the primordial non-Gaussianity (PNG) parameter $f_{\rm NL}^{\rm loc}$ via the large-scale scale-dependent bias in the power spectrum using $1,631,716$ LRGs ($0.6 < z < 1.1$) and $1,189,129$ QSOs ($0.8 < z < 3.1$). This new measurement takes advantage of the enormous statistical power at large scales of DESI DR1 data, surpassing the latest data release (DR16) of the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS). For the first time in this kind of analysis, we use a blinding procedure to mitigate the risk of confirmation bias in our results. We improve the model of the radial integral constraint proposing an innovative correction of the window function. We also carefully test the mitigation of the dependence of the target selection on the photometry qualities by incorporating an angular integral constraint contribution to the window function, and validate our methodology with the blinded data. Finally, combining the two samples, we measure $f_{\rm NL}^{\rm loc} = {-3.6}_{-9.1}^{+9.0}$ at $68\%$ confidence, where we assume the universality relation for the LRG sample and a recent merger model for the QSO sample about the response of bias to primordial non-Gaussianity. Adopting the universality relation for the PNG bias in the QSO analysis leads to $f_{\rm NL}^{\rm loc} = 3.5_{-7.4}^{+10.7}$ at $68\%$ confidence. This measurement is the most precise determination of primordial non-Gaussianity using large-scale structure to date, surpassing the latest result from eBOSS by a factor of $2.3$.

Constraining Neutrino Mass with the Void Weak Lensing Effect

astro-ph.CO · 2026-03-10 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Simulations of void-shear cross-correlation demonstrate that void lensing can constrain total neutrino mass to σ(M_ν)=0.096 eV without shape noise and 0.340 eV with Stage-III-like noise.

Parity Violation in Galaxy Shapes: Primordial Non-Gaussianity

astro-ph.CO · 2025-09-10 · conditional · novelty 6.0

The parity-odd intrinsic alignment power spectrum probes the collapsed limit of the parity-odd primordial trispectrum and can tighten constraints on parity-violating PNG when bias parameters are calibrated from N-body simulations.

Tachyonic Encore: A universal shift of inflationary observables

hep-th · 2026-06-10 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

A light axion spectator induces post-inflation tachyonic phases that produce a nearly scale-invariant boost to the curvature power spectrum and alter key inflationary observables in a largely potential-independent manner.

Constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity from Quaia

astro-ph.CO · 2025-04-29 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Reports f_NL = -20.5^{+19.0}_{-18.1} (68% CL) from combined Quaia quasar auto-correlation and CMB lensing cross-correlation assuming p_phi=1, or -28.7^{+26.1}_{-24.6} for p_phi=1.6.
