Large Scale Limit of the Observed Galaxy Power Spectrum
read the original abstract
The large scale limit of the galaxy power spectrum provides a unique window into the early Universe through a possible detection of scale dependent bias produced by primordial non Gaussianities. On such large scales, relativistic effects could become important and be confused for a primordial signal. In this Letter we provide the first consistent estimate of such effects in the observed galaxy power spectrum, and discuss their possible degeneracy with local primordial non Gaussianities. We also clarify the physical differences between the two signatures, as revealed by their different sensitivity to the large scale gravitational potential. Our results indicate that, while relativistic effects could easily account for 10% of the observed power spectrum, the subset of those with a similar scale dependence to a primordial signal can be safely ignored for current galaxy surveys, but it will become relevant for future observational programs.

Optimal and exact wide-angle power spectrum estimation
For finite-rank signals the optimal wide-angle estimator is the two-ℓ Yamamoto form, whose exact window is a finite FFT-computable sum that improves ultra-large-scale SNR by O(1).

Impact of lensing magnification on the power spectrum turnover
Lensing magnification biases the recovered turnover scale k0 by up to 3.6 sigma in high-z mocks, vanishing above z~3.7 for MegaMapper-like surveys and requiring modeling above z~2.9.
