In this review we present a thoroughly comprehensive survey of recent work on modified
theories of gravity and their cosmological consequences. Amongst other things, we cover …

We analyse the large-scale correlation function of the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) and
detect a baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) signal at 105 h− 1 Mpc. The 6dFGS BAO …

Bayesian Optimisation (BO) refers to a suite of techniques for global optimisation of
expensive black box functions, which use introspective Bayesian models of the function to …

The accelerating expansion of the universe is the most surprising cosmological discovery in
many decades, implying that the universe is dominated by some form of “dark energy” with …

Quintessence is a canonical scalar field introduced to explain the late-time cosmic
acceleration. The cosmological dynamics of quintessence is reviewed, paying particular …

The two-point correlation function (2PCF) is the most widely used tool for quantifying the
spatial distribution of galaxies. Since the distribution of galaxies is determined by galaxy …

Over the past decade, f (R) theories have been extensively studied as one of the simplest
modifications to General Relativity. In this article we review various applications of f (R) …

With recent evidence for a possible 'curvature tension'among early and late universe
cosmological probes, Effective Field Theories of Large Scale Structure (EFTofLSS) have …

Dark energy, the mysterious cause of the accelerating expansion of the universe, is one of
the most important fields of research in astrophysics and cosmology today. Introducing the …

We present further development and the first public release of our multimodal nested
sampling algorithm, called MultiNest. This Bayesian inference tool calculates the evidence …
