Non-Gaussianity in the Large-Scale Structure of the Universe

by Emiliano Sefusatti (Nordita)

Europe/Stockholm
Description
I will discuss the non-Gaussian properties of the mass distribution in the Universe. I will describe both the (observed) non-Gaussian component due to gravitational instability as well as a possible (yet unobserved) primordial non-Gaussianity. I will show how they can be distinguished and what we can learn from their measurement in galaxy surveys
