Current measurements of the low and high redshift Universe are in tension if we restrict ourselves to the standard six parameter model of flat $\Lambda$CDM. This tension has two parts. First, the Planck satellite data suggest a higher…

Massive cosmic neutrinos change the structure formation history by suppressing perturbations on small scales. Weak lensing data from galaxy surveys probe the structure evolution and thereby can be used to constrain the total mass of the…

We demonstrate the impact on forecasted neutrino mass constraints of extending galaxy clustering and CMB lensing predictions from linear to next-to-leading-order power spectra. The redshift-space 1-loop power spectrum model we adopt…
