Probing primordial non-Gaussianity: the 3D Bispectrum of Ly-α forest and the redshifted 21-cm signal from the post reionization epoch

Journal Article Sarkar, Tapomoy Guha ; Hazra, Dhiraj Kumar, E-mail: tapomoy@bits-pilani.ac.in, E-mail: dhiraj@apctp.org - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We explore possibility of using the three dimensional bispectra of the Ly-α forest and the redshifted 21-cm signal from the post-reionization epoch to constrain primordial non-Gaussianity. Both these fields map out the large scale distribution of neutral hydrogen and maybe treated as tracers of the underlying dark matter field. We first present the general formalism for the auto and cross bispectrum of two arbitrary three dimensional biased tracers and then apply it to the specific case. We have modeled the 3D Ly-α transmitted flux field as a continuous tracer sampled along 1D skewers which corresponds to quasars sight lines. Formore »« less

Impact of secondary non-Gaussianities on the search for primordial non-Gaussianity with CMB maps

Journal Article Serra, Paolo ; Cooray, Asantha - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

When constraining the primordial non-Gaussianity parameter f{sub NL} with cosmic microwave background anisotropy maps, the bias resulting from the covariance between primordial non-Gaussianity and secondary non-Gaussianities to the estimator of f{sub NL} is generally assumed to be negligible. We show that this assumption may not hold when attempting to measure the primordial non-Gaussianity out to angular scales below a few tens arcminutes with an experiment like Planck, especially if the primordial non-Gaussianity parameter is around the minimum detectability level with f{sub NL} between 5 and 10. In the future, it will be necessary to jointly estimate the combined primordial andmore »« less

Scale-dependent bias from the primordial non-Gaussianity with a Gaussian-squared field

Journal Article Yokoyama, Shuichiro - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We investigate the halo bias in the case where the primordial curvature fluctuations, Φ, are sourced from both a Gaussian random field and a Gaussian-squared field, as Φ(x) = φ(x)+ψ(x){sup 2}−(ψ(x){sup 2}ångle, so-called ''ungaussiton model''. We employ the peak-background split formula and find a new scale-dependence in the halo bias induced from the Gaussian-squared field.

O-V-S-Z AND FRIENDS: NON-GAUSSIANITY FROM INHOMOGENEOUS REIONIZATION

Journal Article Khatri, Rishi ; Wandelt, Benjamin D., E-mail: rkhatri2@illinois.ed, E-mail: bwandelt@illinois.ed - Astrophysical Journal

We calculate the cosmic microwave background (CMB) bispectrum due to inhomogeneous reionization. We calculate all the terms that can contribute to the bispectrum that are products of first-order terms on all scales in conformal Newtonian gauge. We also correctly account for the de-correlation between the matter density and initial conditions using perturbation theory up to third order. We find that the bispectrum is of local type as expected. For a reasonable model of reionization, in which the universe is completely ionized by redshift z{sub ri} {approx} 8 with optical depth to the last scattering surface tau{sub 0} = 0.087, themore »« less
