Signatures of anisotropic sources in the trispectrum of the cosmic microwave background

Maresuke Shiraishi, Eiichiro Komatsu, Marco Peloso

Soft limits of -point correlation functions, in which one wavenumber is much smaller than the others, play a special role in constraining the physics of inflation. Anisotropic s…

Ward identities and consistency relations for the large scale structure with multiple species

Marco Peloso, Massimo Pietroni

We present fully nonlinear consistency relations for the squeezed bispectrum of Large Scale Structure. These relations hold when the matter component of the Universe is composed of…

Polarization bispectrum for measuring primordial magnetic fields

Maresuke Shiraishi

We examine the potential of polarization bispectra of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) to constrain primordial magnetic fields (PMFs). We compute all possible bispectra betwee…

On the Trispectrum of Galileon Inflation

Frederico Arroja, Nicola Bartolo, Emanuela Dimastrogiovanni +1

We present a detailed study of the trispectrum of the curvature perturbation generated within a stable, well defined and predictive theory which comprises an inflationary phase. In…

Parametrized modified gravity constraints after Planck

Bin Hu, Michele Liguori, Nicola Bartolo +1

We constrain and chameleon-type modified gravity in the framework of the Berstchinger-Zukin parametrization using the recent released Planck data, including both CMB tempera…

The Effective Field Theory of Inflation Models with Sharp Features

Nicola Bartolo, Dario Cannone, Sabino Matarrese

We describe models of single-field inflation with small and sharp step features in the potential (and sound speed) of the inflaton field, in the context of the Effective Field Theo…

Anisotropy in solid inflation

Nicola Bartolo, Sabino Matarrese, Marco Peloso +1

In the model of solid / elastic inflation, inflation is driven by a source that has the field theoretical description of a solid. To allow for prolonged slow roll inflation, the so…

The parameter space of Cubic Galileon models for cosmic acceleration

Emilio Bellini, Raul Jimenez

We use recent measurements of the expansion history of the universe to place constraints on the parameter space of cubic Galileon models, in particular we concentrate on those mode…

The Trispectrum in the Effective Theory of Inflation with Galilean symmetry

Nicola Bartolo, Emanuela Dimastrogiovanni, Matteo Fasiello

We calculate the trispectrum of curvature perturbations for a model of inflation endowed with Galilean symmetry at the level of the fluctuations around an FRW background. Such a mo…

First observational constraints on tensor non-Gaussianity sourced by primordial magnetic fields from cosmic microwave background

Maresuke Shiraishi, Toyokazu Sekiguchi

Primordial magnetic fields (PMFs) create a large squeezed-type non-Gaussianity in tensor perturbation, which generates non-Gaussian temperature fluctuations in the cosmic microwave…

Optimal bispectrum estimator and simulations of the the CMB Lensing-ISW non-Gaussian signal

Anna Mangilli, Benjamin Wandelt, Franz Elsner +1

In this paper we present the tools to optimally extract the Lensing-Integrated Sachs Wolfe (L-ISW) bispectrum signal from future CMB data. We implement two different methods to sim…

Signatures of anisotropic sources in the squeezed-limit bispectrum of the cosmic microwave background

Maresuke Shiraishi, Eiichiro Komatsu, Marco Peloso +1

The bispectrum of primordial curvature perturbations in the squeezed configuration, in which one wavenumber, , is much smaller than the other two, , pla…

Galilean invariance and the consistency relation for the nonlinear squeezed bispectrum of large scale structure

Marco Peloso, Massimo Pietroni

We discuss the constraints imposed on the nonlinear evolution of the Large Scale Structure (LSS) of the universe by galilean invariance, the symmetry relevant on subhorizon scales.…

Non-Gaussianity and CMB aberration and Doppler

Riccardo Catena, Michele Liguori, Alessio Notari +1

The peculiar motion of an observer with respect to the CMB rest frame induces a deflection in the arrival direction of the observed photons (also known as CMB aberration) and a Dop…
