Modelling the matter bispectrum at small scales in modified gravity

Abstract

Future large-scale structure surveys will measure three-point statistics with high statistical significance. This will offer significant improvements on our understanding of gravity, provided we can model these statistics accurately. We assess the performance of several schemes for theoretical modelling of the matter bispectrum, including halo-model based approaches and fitting formulae. We compare the model predictions against N-body simulations, considering scales up to $k_{\max }=4h/\mathrm{Mpc}$, well into non-linear regime of structure formation. Focusing on the equilateral configuration, we conduct this analysis for three theories of gravity: general relativity, $f(R)$ gravity, and the DGP braneworld model. Additionally, we compute the lensing convergence bispectrum for these models. We find that all current modelling prescriptions in modified gravity, in particular for theories with scale-dependent linear growth, fail to attain the accuracy required by the precision of the Stage IV surveys such as \emph{Euclid}. Among these models, we find that a halo-model corrected fitting formula achieves the best overall performance.
