Abstract

We use the ellipsoidal collapse approximation to investigate the nonlinear redshift space evolution of the density field with primordial non-Gaussianity of the local f_{nl}-type. We utilize the joint distribution of eigenvalues of the initial non-Gaussian shear field and evaluate the evolved redshift space probability distribution function (PDF). It is shown that, similar to the real space analysis, the underdense tail of the nonlinear redshift space PDF differs significantly from that for Gaussian initial conditions. We also derive the lowest order correction of the Kaiser's formulain the presence of a non-zero f_{nl}.
