An improved fitting formula for the dark matter bispectrum

In this paper we present an improved fitting formula for the dark matter bispectrum motivated by the previous phenomenological approach of ref. [1]. We use a set of LCDM simulations to calibrate the fitting parameters in the k-range of 0.03 h/Mpc <= k <= 0.4 h/Mpc and in the redshift range of 0 <= z <= 1.5. This new proposed fit describes well the BAO-features although it was not designed to. The deviation between the simulations output and our analytic prediction is typically less than 5% and in the worst case is never above 10%. We envision that this new analytic fitting formula will be very useful in providing reliable predictions for the non-linear dark matter bispectrum for LCDM models.
