Title: Cosmological analysis of three-dimensional BOSS galaxy clustering and Planck CMB lensing cross correlations via Lagrangian perturbation theory

Abstract

In this work, we present a formalism for jointly fitting pre- and post-reconstruction redshift-space clustering (RSD) and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) plus gravitational lensing (of the CMB) that works directly with the observed 2-point statistics. The formalism is based upon (effective) Lagrangian perturbation theory and a Lagrangian bias expansion, which models RSD, BAO and galaxy-lensing cross correlations within a consistent dynamical framework. As an example we present an analysis of clustering measured by the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey in combination with CMB lensing measured by Planck. The post-reconstruction BAO strongly constrains the distance-redshift relation, the full-shape redshift-space clustering constrains the matter density and growth rate, and CMB lensing constrains the clustering amplitude. Using only the redshift space data we obtain Ωm = 0.303 ± 0.008, $$H_0$$ = 69.21 ± 0.78 and $$σ_8$$ = 0.743 ± 0.043. The addition of lensing information, even when restricted to the Northern Galactic Cap, improves constraints to Ωm = 0.303 ± 0.008, $$H_0$$ = 69.21 ± 0.77 and $$σ_8$$ = 0.707 ± 0.035, in tension with CMB and cosmic shear constraints. The combination of Ωm and $$H_0$$ are consistent with Planck, though their constraints derive mostly from redshift-space clustering. The low $$σ_8$$ value are driven by cross correlations with CMB lensing in the low redshift bin ($$\textit{z}$$ ≃ 0.38) and at large angular scales, which show a 20% deficit compared to expectations from galaxy clustering alone. We conduct several systematics tests on the data and find none that could fully explain these tensions.
