Spectroscopic surveys such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and Euclid are mapping the spatial distribution of millions of galaxies, with Emission Line Galaxies (ELGs) serving as the dominant tracer in the redshift range…

Extracting cosmological information from Stage IV weak lensing surveys requires non-linear modelling of the matter power spectrum that is accurate across a broad range of scales and redshifts and robust to baryonic feedback. We forecast the…

Modified gravity theories constitute viable alternatives to the standard cosmological model for explaining the observed late-time accelerated expansion of the Universe. The Effective Field Theory of Dark Energy (EFTofDE) is an efficient…

We present a multi-modal foundation model for astrophysical galaxy data, designed to map between simulation- and observation-based galactic features. Our encoder-only transformer flexibly ingests scalar quantities (e.g., redshifts, galaxy…

We consider the shape of the posterior distribution to be used when fitting cosmological models to power spectra measured from galaxy surveys. At very large scales, Gaussian posterior distributions in the power do not approximate the…
