The angular power spectrum of NVSS radio galaxies
We measure the angular power spectrum Cl of radio galaxies in the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) using two independent methods: direct spherical harmonic analysis and maximum likelihood estimation. The results are consistent and can be understood using models for the spatial matter power spectrum and for the redshift distribution of radio galaxies at mJy flux-density levels. A good fit to the angul...
متن کاملThe Angular Power Spectrum of Edsgc Galaxies
We determine the angular power spectrum Cl of the Edinburgh/Durham Southern Galaxy Catalog (EDSGC) and use this statistic to constrain cosmological parameters. Our methods for determining Cl and the parameters that affect it are based on those developed for the analysis of cosmic microwave backgroundmaps. We expect them to be useful for future surveys. Assuming flat cold dark matter models with...
متن کاملLow Power Compact Radio Galaxies at High Angular Resolution
We present sub-arcsecond resolution multi-frequency (8 and 22 GHz) VLA images of five low power compact (LPC) radio sources, and phase referenced VLBA images at 1.6 GHz of their nuclear regions. At the VLA resolution we resolve the structure and identify component positions and flux densities. The phase referenced VLBA data at 1.6 GHz reveals flat-spectrum, compact cores (down to a few milliJan...
متن کاملNormalization of the Matter Power Spectrum via Higher-Order Angular Correlations of Luminous Red Galaxies
We present a novel technique to measure σ8, by measuring the dependence of the second-order bias of a density field on σ8 using two separate techniques. Each technique employs area-averaged angular correlation functions (ω̄N), one relying on the shape of ω̄2, the other relying on the amplitude of s3 (s3 = ω̄3/ω̄ 2 2). We confirm the validity of the method by testing it on a mock catalog drawn from ...
متن کاملAngular-planar CMB power spectrum
Gaussianity and statistical isotropy of the universe are modern cosmology's minimal set of hypotheses. In this work we introduce a new statistical test to detect observational deviations from this minimal set. By de ning the temperature correlation function over the whole celestial sphere, we are able to independently quantify both angular and planar dependence (modulations) of the CMB temperat...
