The formation of cosmic structures in non-Gaussian models Lauro Moscardini Dipartimento di Astronomia Università di Bologna, Italy Nonlinear cosmology program 2006, OCA Nice, January 2006

Testable predictions of standard models for inflation Cosmological aspects Critical density Universe Critical density Universe Almost scale-invariant and nearly Gaussian, adiabatic density fluctuations Almost scale-invariant and nearly Gaussian, adiabatic density fluctuations Almost scale-invariant stochastic background of relic gravitational waves Almost scale-invariant stochastic background of relic gravitational waves

Why (non-) Gaussian?  collection of independent harmonic oscillators (no mode-mode coupling)  the motivation for Gaussian initial conditions (the standard assumption) ranges from mere simplicity to the use of the Central Limit Theorem, to the property of inflation produced seeds (… see below) Gaussian free (i.e. non-interacting) field large-scale phase coherence non-linear gravitational dynamics

The present-day view on non- Gaussianity  Alternative structure formation models of the end of eighties considered strongly non-Gaussian primordial fluctuations (e.g. my PhD thesis  )  The increased accuracy in CMB and LSS observations has, however, excluded this extreme possibility.  The present-day challenge is either detect or constrain mild or even weak deviations from primordial Gaussianity.  Deviations of this type are not only possible but are unavoidably predicted in the standard perturbation generating mechanism provided by inflation.

N-body simulations of “old-generation” NG models from: Moscardini, Lucchin, Matarrese & Messina 1991 In the late late eighties and early nineties a variety of (mostly toy) models with strongly NG (e.g. χ 2 or lognormally distributed) primordial gravitational potential or density fields were adopted as initial conditions in N-body simulations (Moscardini et al. 1991; Weinberg & Cole 1992).

“Non-Gaussian=non-dog”  Need a model able to parametrize deviations from Gaussianity in a cosmological framework  A simple class of mildly non-Gaussian perturbations is described by a sort of Taylor expansion around the Gaussian case:   =  + f NL  2 + g NL  3 + … const. where  is the peculiar gravitational potential,  is a Gaussian field  f NL, g NL, etc. … are dimensionless parameters quantifying the non-Gaussianity (non- linearity) strength where  is the peculiar gravitational potential,  is a Gaussian field  f NL, g NL, etc. … are dimensionless parameters quantifying the non-Gaussianity (non- linearity) strength S. F. Shandarin

The non-Gaussian model     from WMAP Many primordial (inflationary) models of non-Gaussianity can be represented in configuration space by the general formula (e.g. Verde et al. 2000; Komatsu & Spergel 2001)  =  =  L + f NL * (  L 2 - )   where  is the large-scale gravitational potential,  L its linear Gaussian contribution and f NL is the dimensionless non- linearity parameter (or more generally non-linearity function). The percent of non-Gaussianity in CMB data implied by this model is     NG % ~ |f NL |

Where does large-scale non- Gaussianity come from? f NL   Falk et al. (1993) found f NL   (from non-linearity in the inflaton potential in a fixed de Sitter space) in the standard single-field slow-roll scenario Gangui et al. (1994), using stochastic inflation found f NL  f NL  (from second-order gravitational corrections during inflation). Acquaviva et al. (2003) and Maldacena (2003) confirmed this estimate (up to numerical factors and momentum-dependent terms) with a full second-order approach Bartolo et al. (2004) show that second-order corrections after inflation enhance the primordial signal leading to f NL ~ 1

Observational constraints on f NL  The strongest limits on non- Gaussianity so far come from WMAP data. Komatsu et al. (2003) find (at 95% cl)  According to Komatsu & Spergel (2001) using the angular bispectrum one can reach values as low as with WMAP & with WMAP & with Planck can be achieved with Planck can be achieved  Similar constraints have been obtained by various groups by applying different statistical techniques to WMAP data (e.g. Cabella et al. 2005, 2006, etc..) Komatsu et al < f NL < 134 |f NL | = 20 |f NL | = 5

Alternative probes for non-Gaussianity  Besides using standard statistical estimators, like bispectrum, trispectrum, three and four-point function, skewness, etc. …, one can look at the tails of the distribution, i.e. at rare events.  Rare events have the advantage that they often maximize deviations from what predicted by a Gaussian distribution, but have the obvious disadvantage of being … rare!  Matarrese, Verde & Jimenez (2000) and Verde, Jimenez, Kamionkowski & Matarrese have shown that clusters at high redshift (z>1) can probe NG down to f NL ~ 10 2 which is, however, not competitive with future CMB (Planck) constraints 1) Rare events

 Verde et al. (1999) and Scoccimarro et al. (2004) showed that constraints on primordial non- Gaussianity in the gravitational potential from large redshift-surveys like 2dF and SDSS are not competitive with CMB ones: f NL has to be larger than 10 2 – 10 3 in order to be detected as a sort of non-linear bias in the galaxy-to-dark matter density relation. However LSS gives complementary constraints, as it probes NG on different scales than CMB. Going to redshift z~1 could help (but one would surveys covering a large fraction of the sky). Alternative probes for non-Gaussianity 2) Local LSS

 Primordial non-Gaussianity would also strongly affect the abundance of the first non-linear objects in the Universe, thereby affecting the reionization epoch (Chen et al. 2003)  is the WMAP result more likely?  is the WMAP result more likely? Alternative probes for non-Gaussianity 3) LSS at high redshifts

Initial density distributions Models have both positive and negative skewness in the primordial density distribution

f_nl=-2000f_nl=+2000 Gaussian model: f_nl=0 10 Mpc/h slice at z=10

f_nl=-2000f_nl=+2000 Gaussian model: f_nl=0 10 Mpc/h slice at z=3.1

f_nl=-2000f_nl=+2000 Gaussian model: f_nl=0 10 Mpc/h slice at z=1.1

10 Mpc/h slice at z=0 f_nl=-2000f_nl=+2000 Gaussian model: f_nl=0

Redshiftevolution of density distribution Largest differences are expected in the tails: high-density regions and voids

Redshift evolution of skewness The growth of skewness via gravitational instability is quite regular: no evident differnces with respect to the gaussian models

Redshift evolution of kurtosis Again, similar evolution produced by gravitational instability

Redshift evolution of power spectrum Gaussian model: f_nl=0

f_nl=+1000f_nl=-1000 Redshift evolution of Power spectrum

Comparing different models: intermediate redshifts

Comparing different models: higher redshifts

Preliminary Conclusions Effects of non-Gaussianity are more evident at intermediate redshifts (1<z<5) and are affecting both halo abundances and clustering evolution Effects of non-Gaussianity are more evident at intermediate redshifts (1<z<5) and are affecting both halo abundances and clustering evolution Obtaining weaker but complementary constraints on f_nl w.r.t. CMB can be certainly possible by using future (SZ /X- ray) clusters, high-z galaxy clustering, reionization epoch. Obtaining weaker but complementary constraints on f_nl w.r.t.
