abstract

An observational program focused on the high redshift ($2<z<6$) Universe has the opportunity to dramatically improve over upcoming LSS and CMB surveys on measurements of both the standard cosmological model and its extensions. Using a Fisher matrix formalism that builds upon recent advances in Lagrangian perturbation theory, we forecast constraints for future spectroscopic and 21-cm surveys on the standard cosmological model, curvature, neutrino mass, relativistic species, primordial features, primordial non-Gaussianity, dynamical dark energy, and gravitational slip. We compare these constraints with those achievable by current or near-future surveys such as DESI and Euclid, all under the same forecasting formalism, and compare our formalism with traditional linear methods. Our Python code FishLSS $-$ used to calculate the Fisher information of the full shape power spectrum, CMB lensing, the cross-correlation of CMB lensing with galaxies, and combinations thereof $-$ is publicly available.

  1. Wonderings on Wiggly Bispectra: Non-linear Evolution and Reconstruction of Oscillations in the Squeezed Bispectrum

    astro-ph.CO 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Non-linear structure formation damps oscillatory squeezed bispectra with cos(µ ln(q/k)) shape by k ~ 0.3 h/Mpc at z = 0, and iterative reconstruction recovers most of the signal.

  2. Searching for Inflationary Physics with the CMB Trispectrum: 2. Code & Validation

    astro-ph.CO 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    PolySpec is a public, validated suite of near-optimal quartic estimators that lets the CMB four-point function probe many inflationary models beyond local non-Gaussianity.

  3. Searching for Inflationary Physics with the CMB Trispectrum: 1. Primordial Theory & Optimal Estimators

    astro-ph.CO 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A set of quasi-optimal CMB trispectrum estimators is derived for local, EFT, direction-dependent, spinning-particle, point-source, and lensing templates, enabling first collider searches.

  4. Sensitivity of Next-Generation CMB Surveys to Neutrinos and Other Light Relics

    astro-ph.CO 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    CMB-S4 forecasts: the two-site design reaches sigma(Neff)=0.029 in seven years, the Chile-only revised design reaches 0.030 in nine, and a cosmic-variance-limited survey would reach 0.0073.

  5. Probing the matter-dominated expansion with multi-redshift Lyman-$\alpha$ BAO from DESI DR2

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    DESI DR2 Lyman-alpha BAO measurements split into three redshift bins trace the expansion rate H(z) over z≈2.1–2.8, yielding a power-law slope n=1.34±0.16 consistent with matter-dominated expansion.

  6. Assessing the large-scale angular clustering of UNIONS Lyman Break Galaxies via cross-correlations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    UNIONS Lyman-break galaxy auto-clustering is unusable at large scales due to imaging systematics, but LBG x CMB-lensing and LBG x quasar cross-spectra are measured robustly, with amplitudes consistent with predictions.

  7. Reanalyzing DESI DR1: 4. Percent-Level Cosmological Constraints from Combined Probes and Robust Evidence for the Normal Neutrino Mass Hierarchy

    astro-ph.CO 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A combined-analysis of DESI galaxy clustering, CMB lensing, BAO, CMB, and supernovae yields percent-level Lambda-CDM parameters, improved dark-energy figure-of-merit, and neutrino-mass bounds that disfavor the inverte...

  8. $\texttt{GENGARS}$: Accurate non-Gaussian initial conditions with arbitrary bispectrum for N-body simulations

    astro-ph.CO 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    GENGARS uses a Schwinger-parameterized reduced bispectrum kernel to generate N-body initial conditions for arbitrary separable PNG shapes, reducing spurious power-spectrum contributions relative to 2LPT-PNG.

  9. Searching for Inflationary Physics with the CMB Trispectrum: 3. Constraints from Planck

    astro-ph.CO 2025-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A comprehensive Planck PR4 trispectrum analysis finds no primordial non-Gaussianity across 33 templates and sets leading constraints, including tau_NL loc < 1500 at 95% CL.

  10. The Millennium and Astrid galaxies in effective field theory: comparison with galaxy-halo connection models at the field level

    astro-ph.CO 2024-12 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Red and blue simulated galaxies can be described by the same field-level effective field theory as halo mocks, but blue galaxies require the dedicated HMQ model rather than LRG-style HOD models.

  11. Constraining primordial non-Gaussianity with DESI 2024 LRG and QSO samples

    The authors use DESI DR1 LRG and QSO clustering to measure f_NL^loc = -3.6 (+9.0/-9.1) at 68% confidence, the tightest galaxy-survey constraint on local primordial non-Gaussianity to date.

    astro-ph.CO 2025-05 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    At z=3, field-level EFT fits give linear biases around 4 for LBGs and 2 for LAEs in MTNG and Astrid, with an estimated EFT momentum reach of 0.2-0.8 inverse megaparsecs, suggesting EFT will work for future high-redshi...

    astro-ph.CO 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Including the quadrupole in power-spectrum forecasts improves f_NL precision by 45% to 63%, while neglected relativistic and wide-angle corrections shift f_NL by up to 0.6 sigma for MegaMapper.

    astro-ph.CO 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Applying a hybrid reconstruction, then cross-correlating the squared potential with the density, yields a simulated f_NL forecast up to three times tighter than the unreconstructed bispectrum.
