Proposes Super-LambdaCDM model with extra parameters for non-Gaussianities

Finds hints these new parameters deviate from zero

Shows this impacts neutrino constraints, relaxing neutrino mass limits

Locking new parameters to zero may bias neutrino constraints

AI generated summary

Non-Gaussianities may impact neutrino constraints

This paper proposes an extension to the standard cosmological model called Super-LambdaCDM, which includes extra parameters to model primordial non-Gaussianities. The authors find hints these new parameters deviate from zero, indicating non-Gaussianities. They show this impacts neutrino constraints, relaxing limits on neutrino mass by a factor of two. Locking the new parameters to zero may bias neutrino constraints.
