摘要:

宇宙中大尺度结构的统计可以用来探测原始密度场的非高斯性,补充现有的宇宙微波背景的限制。特别是,晕偏置的尺度依赖性,这会影响晕分布在大尺度上,是一个很有前途的工具,用于分析原始的非高斯的本地形式。例如,未来的观测可能能够约束难以单独使用CMB研究和约束的三谱参数gNL。我们研究如何星系和物质的双谱可以区分两个非高斯参数fNL和gNL,其效果给近简并的贡献的功率谱。我们使用一个概括的单变量偏差的方法,假设在一个给定的位置形成的晕的数密度是一个函数的本地物质密度对比度和其本地高阶统计。利用这种方法,我们计算了晕物质的双谱,并分析了它们的性质。我们确定之间的连接的大尺度上的晕双谱的符号和参数gNL。我们还构建了一个组合的晕和物质双谱,是敏感的fNL,几乎没有污染的gNL。我们研究了原始引力势的单源和多源情况,讨论了如何将随机晕偏置的概念推广到双谱情况。我们使用一个特定的晕质量函数,在适当的压缩极限数值计算的双谱,证实了我们的理论研究结果。

英文摘要:

The statistics of large-scale structure in the Universe can be used to probe non-Gaussianity of the primordial density field, complementary to existing constraints from the cosmic microwave background. In particular, the scale dependence of halo bias, which affects the halo distribution at large scales, represents a promising tool for analyzing primordial non-Gaussianity of local form. Future observations, for example, may be able to constrain the trispectrum parameter gNL that is difficult to study and constrain using the CMB alone. We investigate how galaxy and matter bispectra can distinguish between the two non-Gaussian parameters fNL and gNL, whose effects give nearly degenerate contributions to the power spectra. We use a generalization of the univariate bias approach, making the hypothesis that the number density of halos forming at a given position is a function of the local matter density contrast and of its local higher-order statistics. Using this approach, we calculate the halo-matter bispectra and analyze their properties. We determine a connection between the sign of the halo bispectrum on large scales and the parameter gNL. We also construct a combination of halo and matter bispectra that is sensitive to fNL, with little contamination from gNL. We study both the case of single and multiple sources to the primordial gravitational potential, discussing how to extend the concept of stochastic halo bias to the case of bispectra. We use a specific halo mass-function to calculate numerically the bispectra in appropriate squeezed limits, confirming our theoretical findings.
