Numerical simulations of massive neutrino cosmologies consistently find a spoon-like feature in the non-linear matter power spectrum ratios of cosmological models that differ only in the neutrino mass fraction f_N. Typically, the ratio approaches unity at low wave numbers k, decreases by ~ 10 f_N at k ~ 1 h/Mpc, and turns up again at large k. Using the halo model of large-scale structure, we show that this spoon feature originates in the transition from the two-halo power spectrum to the one-halo power spectrum. The formers sensitivity to f_N rises with k, while that of the latter decreases with k. The presence of this spoon feature is robust with respect to different choices of the halo mass function and the halo density profile, and does not require any parameter tuning within the halo model. We demonstrate that a standard halo model calculation is already able to predict the depth, width, and position of this spoon as well as its evolution with redshift z with remarkable accuracy. Predictions at z >= 1 can be further improved using non-linear perturbative inputs.

We analytically model the non-linear effects induced by massive neutrinos on the total matter power spectrum using the halo model reaction framework of Cataneo et al. 2019. In this approach the halo model is used to determine the relative change to t
he matter power spectrum caused by new physics beyond the concordance cosmology. Using standard fitting functions for the halo abundance and the halo mass-concentration relation, the total matter power spectrum in the presence of massive neutrinos is predicted to percent-level accuracy, out to $k=10 , h , {rm Mpc}^{-1}$. We find that refining the prescriptions for the halo properties using $N$-body simulations improves the recovered accuracy to better than 1%. This paper serves as another demonstration for how the halo model reaction framework, in combination with a single suite of standard $Lambda$CDM simulations, can recover percent-level accurate predictions for beyond-$Lambda$CDM matter power spectra, well into the non-linear regime.
Future or ongoing galaxy redshift surveys can put stringent constraints on neutrinos masses via the high-precision measurements of galaxy power spectrum, when combined with cosmic microwave background (CMB) information. In this paper we develop a met
hod to model galaxy power spectrum in the weakly nonlinear regime for a mixed dark matter (CDM plus finite-mass neutrinos) model, based on perturbation theory (PT) whose validity is well tested by simulations for a CDM model. In doing this we carefully study various aspects of the nonlinear clustering and then arrive at a useful approximation allowing for a quick computation of the nonlinear power spectrum as in the CDM case. The nonlinear galaxy bias is also included in a self-consistent manner within the PT framework. Thus the use of our PT model can give a more robust understanding of the measured galaxy power spectrum as well as allow for higher sensitivity to neutrino masses due to the gain of Fourier modes beyond the linear regime. Based on the Fisher matrix formalism, we find that BOSS or Stage-III type survey, when combined with Planck CMB information, gives a precision of total neutrino mass constraint, sigma(m_nu,tot) 0.1eV, while Stage-IV type survey may achieve sigma(m_nu,tot) 0.05eV, i.e. more than a 1-sigma detection of neutrino masses. We also discuss possible systematic errors on dark energy parameters caused by the neutrino mass uncertainty. The significant correlation between neutrino mass and dark energy parameters is found, if the information on power spectrum amplitude is included. More importantly, for Stage-IV type survey, a best-fit dark energy model may be biased and falsely away from the underlying true model by more than the 1-sigma statistical errors, if neutrino mass is ignored in the model fitting.
We use the galaxy angular power spectrum at $zsim0.5-1.2$ from the Canada-France-Hawaii-Telescope Legacy Survey Wide fields (CFHTLS-Wide) to constrain separately the total neutrino mass $sum{m_ u}$ and the effective number of neutrino species $N_{rm{
eff}}$. This survey has recently benefited from an accurate calibration of the redshift distribution, allowing new measurements of the (non-linear) matter power spectrum in a unique range of scales and redshifts sensitive to neutrino free streaming. Our analysis makes use of a recent model for the effect of neutrinos on the weakly non-linear matter power spectrum derived from accurate N-body simulations. We show that CFHTLS, combined with WMAP7 and a prior on the Hubble constant provides an upper limit of $sum{m_ u}<0.29,$eV and $N_{rm{eff}} =4.17^{+1.62}_{-1.26}$ (2$,sigma$ confidence levels). If we omit smaller scales which may be affected by non-linearities, these constraints become $sum{m_ u}<0.41,$eV and $N_{rm{eff}} =3.98^{+2.02}_{-1.20}$ (2$,sigma$ confidence levels). Finally we show that the addition of other large scale structures probes can further improve these constraints, demonstrating that high redshift large volumes surveys such as CFHTLS are complementary to other cosmological probes of the neutrino mass.
In the context of forthcoming galaxy surveys, to ensure unbiased constraints on cosmology and gravity when using non-linear structure information, percent-level accuracy is required when modelling the power spectrum. This calls for frameworks that ca
n accurately capture the relevant physical effects, while allowing for deviations from $Lambda$CDM. Massive neutrino and baryonic physics are two of the most relevant such effects. We present an integration of the halo model reaction frameworks for massive neutrinos and beyond-$Lambda$CDM cosmologies. The integrated halo model reaction, combined with a pseudo power spectrum modelled by HMCode2020 is then compared against $N$-body simulations that include both massive neutrinos and an $f(R)$ modification to gravity. We find that the framework is 5% accurate down to at least $kapprox 3 , h/{rm Mpc}$ for a modification to gravity of $|f_{rm R0}|leq 10^{-5}$ and for the total neutrino mass $M_ u equiv sum m_ u leq 0.15$ eV. We also find that the framework is 4(1)% consistent with the Bacco (EuclidEmulator2) emulator for $ u w$CDM cosmologies down to at least $k approx 3 , h$/Mpc. Finally, we compare against hydrodynamical simulations employing HMCode2020s baryonic feedback modelling on top of the halo model reaction. For $ u Lambda$CDM cosmologies we find 2% accuracy for $M_ u leq 0.48$eV down to at least $kapprox 5h$/Mpc. Similar accuracy is found when comparing to $ u w$CDM hydrodynamical simulations with $M_ u = 0.06$eV. This offers the first non-linear and theoretically general means of accurately including massive neutrinos for beyond-$Lambda$CDM cosmologies, and further suggests that baryonic effects can be reliably modelled independently of massive neutrino and dark energy physics. These extensions have been integrated into the publicly available ReACT code.
We present the first attempt to analytically study the nonlinear matter power spectrum for a mixed dark matter (cold dark matter plus neutrinos of total mass ~0.1eV) model based on cosmological perturbation theory. The suppression in the power spectr
um amplitudes due to massive neutrinos is, compared to the linear regime, enhanced in the weakly nonlinear regime where standard linear theory ceases to be accurate. We demonstrate that, thanks to this enhanced effect and the gain in the range of wavenumbers to which the PT prediction is applicable, the use of such a nonlinear model may enable a precision of sigma(m_nu,tot) ~ 0.07eV in constraining the total neutrino mass for the planned galaxy redshift survey, a factor of 2 improvement compared to the linear regime.
