Abstract

We investigate the halo bias in the case where the primordial curvature fluctuations, Φ\Phi, are sourced from both a Gaussian random field and a Gaussian-squared field, as Φ(x)=ϕ(x)+ψ(x)2<ψ(x)2>\Phi({\bf x}) = \phi({\bf x}) + \psi({\bf x})^2 - <\psi({\bf x})^2>, so-called "ungaussiton model". We employ the peak-background split formula and find a new scale-dependence in the halo bias induced from the Gaussian-squared field.
