Correlation Function of Galaxy Groups
We use the Updated Zwicky Catalog of galaxies (Falco et al. 1999) to generate a catalog of groups, by means of a friend-of-friend algorithm. The groups identified have 4 or more members and a surrounding density contrast, δρ/ρ = 80. They cover the region −4 < δ < 90, |b| > 20 spanning over the radial velocity range of 2000 km s < cz < 15000 km s. The total sample (hereafter GUZC) comprises 517 ...
متن کاملThe anisotropic redshift space galaxy correlation function: detection on the BAO Ring
In a series of papers we have recently studied the clustering of LRG galaxies in the latest spectroscopic SDSS data release, which has 75000 LRG galaxies sampling 1.1 Gpc3/h3 to z=0.47. Here we focus on detecting a local maxima shaped as a circular ring in the bidimensional galaxy correlation function ξ (σ ,π), separated in perpendicular σ and line-of-sight π distances. We find a significant de...
متن کاملComparing estimators of the galaxy correlation function
We present a systematic comparison of some usual estimators of the 2–point correlation function, some of them currently used in Cosmology, others extensively employed in the field of the statistical analysis of point processes. At small scales, it is known that the correlation function follows reasonably well a power–law expression ξ(r) ∝ r−γ. The accurate determination of the exponent γ (the o...
متن کاملThe Galaxy–Absorber Cross-Correlation Function
We describe an analysis of the galaxy–absorber cross-correlation function ξga(v, ρ) as a function of velocity separation v, impact parameter separation ρ, and absorber Lyα equivalent width W on impact parameter scales that extend up to ≈ 1 h Mpc.
متن کاملGalaxy Zoo : Chiral correlation function of galaxy spins ⋆
Galaxy Zoo is the first study of nearby galaxies that contains reliable information about the spiral sense of rotation of galaxy arms for a sizeable number of galaxies. We measure the correlation function of spin chirality (the sense in which galaxies appear to be spinning) of face-on spiral galaxies in angular, real and projected spaces. Our results indicate a hint of positive correlation at s...
