Squeezed Limit non-Gaussianity Estimation with Cosmic Shear

Shi-Hui Zang, Moritz Münchmeyer

We present a new method to constrain local primordial non-Gaussianity using the large-scale modulation of the local lensing power spectrum. Our work extends our recently proposed $…

QML-FAST -- A Fast Code for low- Tomographic Maximum Likelihood Power Spectrum Estimation

Yurii Kvasiuk, Anderson Lai, Moritz Münchmeyer +1

We present a novel implementation for the quadratic maximum likelihood (QML) power spectrum estimator for multiple correlated scalar fields on the sphere. Our estimator supports ar…

If at First You Don't Succeed, Trispectrum: I. Estimating the Matter Power Spectrum Covariance with Higher-Order Statistics

Samuel Goldstein, Kendrick M. Smith, Utkarsh Giri +1

We present a method to estimate non-Gaussian power spectrum covariance matrices by directly measuring the response of the small-scale power spectrum to long-wavelength perturbation…

Constraining using the Large-Scale Modulation of Small-Scale Statistics

Utkarsh Giri, Moritz Münchmeyer, Kendrick M. Smith

We implement a novel formalism to constrain primordial non-Gaussianity of the local type from the large-scale modulation of the small-scale power spectrum. Our approach combines in…

The Simons Observatory: forecasted constraints on primordial gravitational waves with the expanded array of Small Aperture Telescopes

The Simons Observatory Collaboration, I. Abril-Cabezas, S. Adachi +479

We present updated forecasts for the scientific performance of the degree-scale (0.5 deg FWHM at 93 GHz), deep-field survey to be conducted by the Simons Observatory (SO). By 2027,…

KSZ Velocity Reconstruction with ACT and DESI-LS using a Tomographic QML Power Spectrum Estimator

Anderson C. M. Lai, Yurii Kvasiuk, Moritz Münchmeyer

We perform kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) velocity reconstruction on data from ACT DR6 and DESI-LS DR9. To estimate the cross-power between kSZ velocity reconstruction and galaxy…
