abstract
The detection of primordial non-Gaussianity could provide a powerful means to test various inflationary scenarios. Although scale-invariant non-Gaussianity (often described by the $f_{NL}$ formalism) is currently best constrained by the CMB, single-field models with changing sound speed can have strongly scale-dependent non-Gaussianity. Such models could evade the CMB constraints but still have important effects at scales responsible for the formation of cosmological objects such as clusters and galaxies. We compute the effect of scale-dependent primordial non-Gaussianity on cluster number counts as a function of redshift, using a simple ansatz to model scale-dependent features. We forecast constraints on these models achievable with forthcoming data sets. We also examine consequences for the galaxy bispectrum. Our results are relevant for the Dirac-Born-Infeld model of brane inflation, where the scale-dependence of the non-Gaussianity is directly related to the geometry of the extra dimensions.

Primordial Physics in the Nonlinear Universe: Revealing the oscillating halo bias from cosmological collider models
A binning-based IC method yields the first N-body measurements of oscillating halo bias from cosmological collider bispectra, with mass- and assembly-dependent phases fit by peak-background-split theory.

The dark matter halo mass function in the $\Lambda\mathrm{CDM}$ cosmology at all times and over all scales -- from planetary to galaxy cluster masses
A Reed-based fitting formula for the ΛCDM halo mass function, accurate to a few percent from 10^{-6} to 10^{15.5} M_⊙ and z=0–30, obtained via nested VVV simulations plus a new subsampling reconstruction.

Empirical estimates of how massive galaxies can be in {\Lambda}CDM
Empirical upper limits on galaxy stellar masses from extreme value statistics, after correcting for Eddington bias and halo mass scatter, remain below the theoretical baryonic maximum of 0.16 times halo mass at all re...

$\texttt{GENGARS}$: Accurate non-Gaussian initial conditions with arbitrary bispectrum for N-body simulations
GENGARS uses a Schwinger-parameterized reduced bispectrum kernel to generate N-body initial conditions for arbitrary separable PNG shapes, reducing spurious power-spectrum contributions relative to 2LPT-PNG.
