Correlation functions of primordial density fluctuations provide an exciting probe of the physics governing the earliest moments of our Universe. However, the standard approach to compute them is technically challenging. Theoretical predictions are therefore available only in restricted classes of theories. In this Letter, we present a complete method to systematically compute tree-level inflationary correlators. This method is based on following the time evolution of equal-time correlators and it accurately captures all physical effects in any theory. These theories are conveniently formulated at the level of inflationary fluctuations, and can feature any number of degrees of freedom with arbitrary dispersion relations and masses, coupled through any type of time-dependent interactions. We demonstrate the power of this approach by exploring the properties of the cosmological collider signal, a discovery channel for new high-energy physics, in theories with strong mixing and in the presence of features. This work lays the foundation for a universal program to assist our theoretical understanding of inflationary physics and generate theoretical data for an unbiased interpretation of upcoming cosmological observations.

  1. New exact bispectrum shapes in multifield inflation

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Exact analytic bispectrum shapes are derived for multifield inflation at arbitrary quadratic mixing strength, showing a strong-mixing collider signal with frequency μ_eff = sqrt(m²/H² + λ² − 9/4).

  2. Dissecting the Scalar Cosmological Collider with the Cosmic Microwave Background

    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.

  3. The Exact and Approximate Tales of Boost-Breaking Cosmological Correlators

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The tree-level boost-breaking cosmological collider seed correlator is computed exactly for general sound speed and chemical potential, and saddle-point methods turn it into practical elementary-function templates.

  4. Bootstrapping the Cosmological Collider with Resonant Features

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Oscillatory couplings with frequency above the heavy field mass remove the Boltzmann suppression of cosmological collider signals and produce new scale-dependent bispectrum shapes, with axion monodromy as a concrete r...

    astro-ph.GA 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    AGILE builds a 24 deg² truth catalog and a 1 deg² three-year LSST pilot (DR1) to measure flux recovery and Type-1 AGN completeness/purity from color and variability selections.
