abstract

Near-future facilities observing the high-redshift universe ($2<z<5$) will have an opportunity to take advantage of "multi-tracer" cosmology by observing multiple tracers of the matter density field: Lyman alpha emitters (LAE), Lyman break galaxies (LBG), and CMB lensing $\kappa$. In this work we use Fisher forecasts to investigate the effect of multi-tracers on next-generation facilities. In agreement with previous work, we show that multiple tracers improve constraints primarily from degeneracy breaking, instead of the traditional intuition of sample variance cancellation. Then, we forecast that for both BBN and CMB primary priors, the addition of lensing and LAEs onto a LBG-only sample will gain 25\% or more in many parameters, with the largest gains being factor of $\sim10$ improvement for $f_{\rm EDE}$. We include a preliminary approach towards modelling the impact of radiative transfer (RT) on forecasts involving LAEs by introducing a simplified model at linear theory level. Our results, albeit preliminary, show that the while RT influences LAE-only forecasts strongly, its effect on composite multi-tracer forecasts are limited.

  1. First full-shape joint analysis of the two- and three-point correlation functions on real data: $\Lambda$CDM cosmological constraints from BOSS DR12

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 8.0

    First joint 2PCF+3PCF full-shape analysis on BOSS DR12 real data improves σ(h) by ~29%, σ(ω_cdm) by ~10%, and σ(A_s) by ~24% over 2PCF alone via extra BAO information in 3PCF triangles.

  2. Lyman-Alpha Forest and its Cross-Correlation with High-Redshift Galaxies in Effective Field Theory at the Field Level

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    An EFT-based field-level forward model for the Lyman-alpha forest matches simulations at the percent level on quasi-linear scales and generates mocks for DESI and DESI-II analyses.

  3. The 3D clustering of Lyman Alpha Emitters measured with DESI

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    DESI LAE clustering measurements give a linear bias of 2.31-2.62 with constraints on radiative transfer effects and halo occupation from correlation functions and power spectra.
