Introduction: Statistical moments

1 The power spectrum is the Fourier transform of the 2-pointfunction.

〈δk1δk2〉 = (2π)3P(k1)δD(k1 + k2)

It contains information about the clustering.

2 The bispectrum is the Fourier transform of the 3-point function.

〈δk1δk2δk3〉 = (2π)3B(k1, k2)δD(k1 + k2 + k3)

It essentially contains information about the non-Gaussianities:primordial + gravitationally inducedSince is gravitationally sensible → Test of GRIt is essential to break the typical degeneracies between biasparameters, σ8 and f .

Measurements: Breaking f and σ8 degeneracy

For constraining f and σ8 alone we need information from P(0), P(2)

and B(0),

Naively we combine “a posteriori” the measurements on f 0.43σ8 withf σ8 measurements (Samushia et al. 2013)

This methodology is non-optimal. The errors can be reduced by,

Including covariance will automatically shrink the error-bars

Including more triangles will also reduce the error-bars.

Therefore, there is still space for improvement. . .

Conclusions

We have combined the power spectrum monopole with thebispectrum monopole to set constrains in the cosmologicalparameters.

Using the galaxy mocks we have determined that b1.40σ8 andf 0.43σ8 are the parameters less affected by degenerations.

The results on f 0.43σ8 are robust under changes in the minimumscale used for the fit.

Combining f 0.43σ8 measurements with f σ8 measurements from thesame galaxy sample, f and σ8 can be estimated separately.
