We investigate the range of applicability of a model for the real-space power spectrum based on N-body dynamics and a (quadratic) Lagrangian bias expansion. This combination uses the highly accurate particle displacements that can be efficiently achieved by modern N-body methods with a symmetries-based bias expansion which describes the clustering of any tracer on large scales. We show that at low redshifts, and for moderately biased tracers, the substitution of N-body-determined dynamics improves over an equivalent model using perturbation theory by more than a factor of two in scale, while at high redshifts and for highly biased tracers the gains are more modest. This hybrid approach lends itself well to emulation. By removing the need to identify halos and subhalos, and by not requiring any galaxy-formation-related parameters to be included, the emulation task is significantly simplified at the cost of modeling a more limited range in scale.

    astro-ph.CO 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A perturbative derivation shows that the large-scale structure likelihood is automatically expressed in terms of the tree-level power spectrum, tree-level bispectrum, and the (2,2) one-loop power spectrum correction.

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Low-redshift galaxy clustering and CMB lensing tomography with hybrid effective field theory gives S8=0.79±0.06, consistent with Planck, while data alone prefer Ωm=0.245±0.024.
