The void power spectrum is related to the clustering of low-density regions in the large-scale structure (LSS) of the Universe, and can be used as an effective cosmological probe to extract the information of the LSS. We generate the galaxy…

We present a new formalism to separate large- and small-scale contributions to cosmic shear through \textit{lensing counterterms} (LCT) inspired by effective field theory (EFT). Marginalizing over these LCTs isolates the large-scale…

While there is mounting evidence in all fronts of experimental cosmology for a non-vanishing dark energy component in the Universe, we are still far away from understanding its ultimate nature. A fundamental cosmological constant, Lambda,…
