Deprojecting Densities from Angular Cross-Correlations
نویسنده
چکیده
I present a model-independent spherically symmetric density estimator to be used in the cross-correlation of imaging catalogs with objects of known redshift. The estimator is a simple modification of the usual projected density estimator, with weightings that produce a spherical aperture rather than a cylindrical one. Subject headings: large-scale structure of the universe — methods: statistical

Correlations and Fluctuations (an Introductory Review)
where n is the multiplicity of identical particles within Ω in a given event and the angular brackets imply the average over the event ensemble. Besides the interparticle correlations, the ρq in general contain “trivial” contributions from lower-order densities. We, therefore, consider a sequence of cumulant coorelation functions Cq(p1, . . . , pq) which vanish whenever one of their arguments b...
متن کاملA QCD analysis of HERA and fixed target structure function data
The parton momentum densities in the proton are determined from a NLO QCD analysis of structure functions measured by HERA and fixed target experiments. Also included are data on the difference of the up and down anti-quark densities. The uncertainties in the parton densities, structure functions and related cross sections are estimated from the experimental errors, taking into account all corr...
متن کاملDeprojecting Sunyaev-Zel’dovich statistics
We apply the hierarchical clustering model and non-linear perturbation theory to the cosmological density and temperature fields. This allows us to calculate the intergalactic gas pressure power spectrum, SZ anisotropy power spectrum, skewness and related statistics. Then we show the effect of the non-gravitational heating. Our model confirms recent simulations yielding mass weighted gas temper...
متن کاملEffects of correlations on the total neutron-Nucleus cross section at high energies
The total neutron-Nucleus cross section has been calculated within an approach which takes into account nucleon-nucleon correlations, Glauber multiple scattering and inelastic shadowing corrections. Nuclear targets ranging from 4He to 208Pb and neutron incident momentum ranging from 3 to 300 GeV/c, have been considered. Correlations have been introduced by two different approaches leading to th...
متن کاملSquared temperature-temperature power spectrum as a probe of the CMB bispectrum
It is now well known that mode-coupling effects associated with certain secondary effects generate higher order correlations in cosmic microwave background ~CMB! temperature anisotropies, beyond the two-point function. In order to extract such a non-Gaussian signal at the three-point level, we suggest a two-point statistic in the form of an angular power spectrum involving correlations between ...
