摘要： The small-scale linear information in galaxy samples typically lost during non-linear growth can be restored to a certain level by the density field reconstruction, which has been demonstrated for improving the precision of the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) measurements. As proposed in the literature, a joint analysis of the power spectrum before and after the reconstruction enables an efficient extraction of information carried by high-order statistics. However, the statistics of the post#2;reconstruction density field are difficult to model. In this work, we circumvent this issue by developing an accurate emulator for the pre-reconstructed, post-reconstructed, and cross power spectra (Ppre, Ppost, Pcross) up to k = 0.5 h Mpc1 based on the Dark Quest N-body simulations. The accuracy of the emulator is at percent level, namely, the error of the emulated monopole and quadrupole of the power spectra is less than 1% and 5% of the ground truth, respectively. A fit to an example power spectra using the emulator shows that the constraints on cosmological parameters get largely improved using Ppre+Ppost+Pcross with kmax = 0.25 h Mpc1 , compared to that derived from Ppre alone, namely, the constraints on (Ωm, H0, 8) are tightened by 41% 55%, and the uncertainties of the derived BAO and RSD parameters (, , f8) shrink by 28% 54%, respectively. This highlights the complementarity among Ppre, Ppost and Pcross, which demonstrates the efficiency and practicability of a joint Ppre, Ppost and Pcross analysis for cosmological implications.
