Description

We apply highly efficient modal methods (developed during the Planck analysis) to large-scale structure distributions in order to optimally evaluate the bispectrum in three dimensions. Currently, deployed on dark matter distributions from N-body codes, this tool is intended for estimating higher-order correlation functions from huge galaxy surveys like Euclid.
