Predictions → Galaxy Bispectrum fNL

P2 lead theory result

Current constraint

Current external constraints remain too broad to establish this prediction. Earlier DESI anomaly-tracer improvement estimates are legacy/superseded pipeline work, not a current flagship result. SPHEREx forecasts are conditional tests, not detections.

Key results

  • P2 derives fNL = -35/16 under its stated matter-contraction assumptions
  • Existing external constraints do not discriminate this conditional value
  • Legacy anomaly-tracer forecasts are preserved as superseded methodology, not current evidence
  • SPHEREx sensitivity forecasts describe a prospective conditional test
  • Possible links to PBH or gravitational-wave phenomenology remain theoretical

Timeline

Prospective SPHEREx sensitivity is a conditional test; present constraints do not discriminate the scenario.

Next steps

  • openMaintain the P2 derivation and its stated assumptions
  • openTreat future SPHEREx analysis as a prospective conditional test
  • openDo not use legacy anomaly-pipeline candidate counts as bounce evidence
