Decaying Dark Matter Halo Abundance from a Revised Spherical Collapse Model

Thomas Montandon, Vivian Poulin, Oliver Hahn +2

We present a semi-analytical framework for the halo mass function (HMF) in decaying dark matter (DDM) cosmologies, in which dark matter decays into a massive daughter particle inhe…

Angular bispectrum of matter number counts in cosmic structures

Thomas Montandon, Enea Di Dio, Cornelius Rampf +1

The bispectrum of galaxy number counts is a key probe of large-scale structure, offering insights into the initial conditions of the Universe, the nature of gravity, and cosmologic…

Scale-dependent local primordial non-Gaussianity as a solution to the tension

Clément Stahl, Benoit Famaey, Rodrigo Ibata +3

For the last decade, several probes have pointed to a cosmological tension between the amplitude of density fluctuations extrapolated from the cosmic microwave background within th…

Simulating the Universe from the cosmological horizon to halo scales

Thomas Montandon, Oliver Hahn, Clément Stahl

Ultra-large scales close to the cosmological horizon will be probed by the upcoming observational campaigns. They hold the promise to constrain single-field inflation as well as ge…

Hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation with non-Gaussian initial conditions

Clément Stahl, Yohan Dubois, Benoit Famaey +4

Collisionless simulations of structure formation with significant local primordial non-Gaussianities at Mpc scales have shown that a non-Gaussian tail favouring underdensities, wit…

Relativistic matter bispectrum of cosmic structures on the light cone

Thomas Montandon, Julian Adamek, Oliver Hahn +4

Upcoming surveys of cosmic structures will probe scales close to the cosmological horizon, which opens up new opportunities for testing the cosmological concordance model to high a…

Exploring the effects of primordial non-Gaussianity at galactic scales

Clément Stahl, Thomas Montandon, Benoit Famaey +2

While large scale primordial non-Gaussianity is strongly constrained by present-day data, there are no such constraints at Mpc scales. Here we investigate the effect of significant…

Relativistic second-order initial conditions for simulations of large-scale structure

J. Adamek, J. Calles, T. Montandon +2

Relativistic corrections to the evolution of structure can be used to test general relativity on cosmological scales. They are also a well-known systematic contamination in the sea…

Isocurvature modes: joint analysis of the CMB power spectrum and bispectrum

Thomas Montandon, Guillaume Patanchon, Bartjan van Tent

We perform a joint analysis of the power spectrum and the bispectrum of the CMB temperature and polarization anisotropies to improve the constraints on isocurvature modes. We const…
