For Gaussian linear perturbations, the one-loop matter power spectrum is
P1−loop​=a2P+a4(P22​+2P13​),
(1)
where P22​ correlates two second-order fields and P13​ correlates a linear field with a third-order field.

One-loop matter power spectrum
A scale-free linear matter spectrum has P(k)=Akn. Dimensional analysis then makes its one-loop P22​ contribution proportional to A2k2n+3 whenever the loop integral converges.
