Beyond dust in local cosmography: covariant kinetic theory

Chris Clarkson, Roy Maartens

Modelling cold dark matter as dust makes the matter congruence geodesic and therefore removes any intrinsic dipole from the local Hubble flow. The dust model breaks down as stream…

Beyond ΛCDM with the SKA Observatory -- I: Probing Gravity on Cosmological Scales

S. Camera, C. Addis, S. L. Guedezounme +26

General relativity (GR) is currently the best description of the gravitational interaction at our disposal and is one of the foundations of the concordance cosmological model. For…

Cosmology with Intensity Mapping via Statistics Beyond the Power Spectrum in the SKAO Era

Suman Majumdar, Debanjan Sarkar, Leon Noble +38

The cosmological distribution of neutral hydrogen (HI) during the post-reionization era is highly non-Gaussian due to the underlying non-linear structure formation, complex galaxy…

Cosmological peculiar velocities in general relativity

Chris Clarkson, Roy Maartens

We reconsider the late-time evolution of galaxy peculiar velocities in the 1+3 covariant approach to cosmological perturbation theory. It has recently been claimed that this approa…

Halving and Doubling: Boosting the Detection of Relativistic Effects in the Galaxy Bispectrum with Optimal Subsample Selection

Samantha Josephine Rossiter, Stefano Camera, Federico Montano +3

On the scale of the cosmic horizon, signatures that are unique to general relativity are concealed within the statistics of the large scale distribution of galaxies. These were tho…

Probing General Relativity on Cosmological Scales in the 2040s

Federico Montano, Samantha J. Rossiter, Chris Addis +18

General relativity is exquisitely tested in strong-field regimes, yet its validity on cosmological scales remains largely unexplored. Upcoming wide and deep large-scale structure s…

Calibration-independent consistency test of BAO and SNIa data: update

Bikash R. Dinda, Roy Maartens, Chris Clarkson

In a recent paper, arXiv:2509.19899, we presented a new method to test the consistency between uncalibrated BAO and SNIa data through a common parameter, the Alcock-Paczynski varia…

Prospects for measuring the Doppler magnification dipole with LSST and DESI

Isabelle Ye, Philip Bull, Caroline Guandalin +2

We forecast the detectability of the Doppler magnification dipole with a joint analysis of galaxy spectroscopic redshifts and size measurements. The Doppler magnification arises fr…

Unbiased analysis of primordial non-Gaussianity: the multipoles of the full relativistic power spectrum

Chris Addis, Sêcloka L. Guedezounme, Jessie Hammond +5

A major goal of ongoing and future cosmological surveys of the large-scale structure is to measure local type primordial non-Gaussianity in the galaxy power spectrum through the sc…

Calibration-independent consistency test of DESI DR2 BAO and SNIa

Bikash R. Dinda, Roy Maartens, Chris Clarkson

We investigate the consistency between DESI DR2 BAO and three SNIa datasets, Pantheon+, Union3, and DES-Y5. Our consistency test is {calibration}-independent since it is independen…

Transverse Velocities in Real-Time Cosmology: Position Drift in Relativistic N-Body Simulations

Alexander Oestreicher, Chris Clarkson, Julian Adamek +1

The era of real-time cosmology has begun. It is now possible to directly measure the apparent drift of high-redshift astronomical sources across the sky . Th…

Covariant cosmography in the presence of local structures: comparing exact solutions and perturbation theory

Maharshi Sarma, Christian Marinoni, Basheer Kalbouneh +2

Recent observational evidence of axially symmetric anisotropies in the local cosmic expansion rate motivates an investigation of whether they can be accounted for within the Lemaît…

The anisotropic expansion rate of the local Universe and its covariant cosmographic interpretation

Basheer Kalbouneh, Christian Marinoni, Roy Maartens +5

Without making any assumption on the underlying geometry and metric of the local Universe, we provide a measurement of the expansion rate fluctuation field using the Cosmicflows-4…

Probing the Cosmological Principle with CMB lensing and cosmic shear

James Adam, Roy Maartens, Julien Larena +2

The standard cosmological model assumes the Cosmological Principle. However, recent observations hint at possible violations of isotropy on large scales, possibly through late-time…

Visualising relativistic effects in redshift space distortions of large scale structure

Pritha Paul, Chris Clarkson

Observing large scale structure in redshift space gives rise to the well known redshift space distortions whereby a spherical distribution of galaxies is distorted into an ellipsoi…

Redshift Drift in Relativistic N-Body Simulations

Alexander Oestreicher, Chris Clarkson, Julian Adamek +1

The cosmological redshift drift promises to be the first observable directly measuring the evolution of the cosmic expansion rate and should be detectable with upcoming surveys by…

Improved null tests of CDM and FLRW in light of DESI DR2

Bikash R. Dinda, Roy Maartens, Shun Saito +1

The DESI DR2 BAO data, in combination with CMB and different SNIa datasets, exclude the flat CDM model at more than 2.5 when analyzed through the CDM parametrization…

Probing the Cosmological Principle with weak lensing shear

James Adam, Roy Maartens, Julien Larena +1

The Cosmological Principle is a cornerstone of the standard model of cosmology and shapes how we view the Universe and our place within it. It is imperative, then, to devise multip…
