The three-dimensional galaxy power spectrum is a powerful probe of primordial non-Gaussianity and additional general relativistic effects, which become important on large scales. At the same time, wide-angle (WA) effects due to differing lines-of-sight (LOS) on the curved sky also become important with large angular separation. In this work, we accurately model WA and Doppler effects using the spherical Fourier-Bessel (SFB) formalism, before transforming the result into the commonly used power spectrum multipoles (PSM). This mapping from the SFB power spectrum to PSM represents a new way to non-perturbatively model WA and GR effects present in the PSM, which we validate with log-normal mocks. Moreover, for the first time, we can compute the analytical PSM Gaussian covariance on large scales, exactly including WA-induced mode-couplings, without resorting to any plane-parallel approximations.

  1. First full-shape joint analysis of the two- and three-point correlation functions on real data: $\Lambda$CDM cosmological constraints from BOSS DR12

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 8.0

    First joint 2PCF+3PCF full-shape analysis on BOSS DR12 real data improves σ(h) by ~29%, σ(ω_cdm) by ~10%, and σ(A_s) by ~24% over 2PCF alone via extra BAO information in 3PCF triangles.

  2. Optimal and exact wide-angle power spectrum estimation

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0

    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).

  3. Impact and measurability of linear relativistic effects in galaxy surveys

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    Neglecting linear GR effects biases f_NL at 1–3σ for Euclid/SPHEREx in SFB forecasts; multi-tracer improves Doppler detection and weakly breaks b_ϕ f_NL degeneracy.

    Introduces the observer power spectrum as a diagonal Fourier-space statistic for lightcone observables by transforming over observer positions rather than sources.
