The most direct probe of non-Gaussian initial conditions has come from bispectrum measurements of temperature fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background and of the matter and galaxy distribution at large scales. Such bispectrum estimators are expected to continue to provide the best constraints on the non-Gaussian parameters in future observations. We review and compare the theoretical and observational problems, current results and future prospects for the detection of a non-vanishing primordial component in the bispectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background and large-scale structure, and the relation to specific predictions from different inflationary models.

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    A joint Bayesian fit of the multi-field inflationary Lagrangian to Planck bispectrum data finds no cosmological collider signal (max Δχ²=5.3) and shows weak-mixing template searches are invalid except at the smallest masses.

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Exact analytic squeezed-limit bispectra for strongly mixed two-field inflation, nonperturbative in the curvature-isocurvature mixing λ.

  3. Searching for Inflationary Physics with the CMB Trispectrum: 2. Code & Validation

    astro-ph.CO 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    PolySpec is a public, validated suite of near-optimal quartic estimators that lets the CMB four-point function probe many inflationary models beyond local non-Gaussianity.
