چکیده

We present the first results of the Karhunen-Loève eigenmodes applied to real data of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey to simultaneously measure the values of the redshift distortion parameter beta=Omega0.60&solm0;b, the linearly extrapolated normalization sigmaL8, and the cold dark matter shape parameter Gamma=Omega0h. The results of our numerical likelihood analysis indicate a low value of beta=0.30+/-0.39, a shape parameter Gamma=0.16+/-0.10, and a linearly extrapolated normalization sigmaL8=0.79+/-0.08, which are consistent with a low-density universe (Omega0 less, similar0.5).

Large Scale Structures in the Las Campanas Redshift Survey and in Simulations

The large supercluster structures obvious in recent galaxy redshift surveys are quantified using an one-dimensional cluster analysis (core sampling) and a three-dimensional cluster analysis based on the minimal spanning tree. The comparison with the LCRS reveals promising stable results. At a mean overdensity of about ten, the supercluster systems form huge wall-like structures comprising about...

Clustering statistics on a light-cone in the cosmological redshift space

We summarize a series of our recent work concerning the cosmological redshift-space distortion and light-cone effects. After briefly describing the theoretical formalism, we show how those effects are sensitive to the cosmological parameters. Then we apply this formalism to predict the two-point correlation functions and power spectra for the X-ray clusters, galaxies and quasars in future surve...

Las Campanas Redshift Survey Results: the 3d Power Spectrumand the Luminosity Function

Some recent results on the galaxy 3D power spectrum and the luminosity function derived from the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (LCRS) are discussed. We will present the LCRS power spectrum, compare it against results from other local redshift surveys, and use it to constrain a number of cold dark matter structure formation models. Then we will proceed to describe the LCRS luminosity function, as...

The Galaxy-weighted Small-scale Velocity Dispersion of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey

The pair-weighted relative velocity dispersion of galaxies provides a measure of the thermal energy of fluctuations of the observed galaxy distribution, but the measure is difficult to interpret and is very sensitive to the existence of rare, rich clusters of galaxies. Several alternative statistical procedures have recently been suggested to relieve these problems. We apply a variant of the ob...
