On priors and scale cuts in EFT-based full-shape analyses

Understand

Parameter estimation from galaxy survey data from the full-shape method depends on scale cuts and priors on EFT parameters.

• The effects of priors, including the so-called ''prior volume'' phenomenon have been originally studied in Ivanov et al.
• (2019) and subsequent works.
• In this note, we repeat and extend these tests and also apply them to other priors used in the literature.
