We present a one per cent measurement of the cosmic distance scale from the detections of the baryon acoustic oscillations in the clustering of galaxies from the Baryon Oscillation…
The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Testing gravity with redshift-space distortions using the power spectrum multipoles
Florian Beutler, Shun Saito, Hee-Jong Seo +15
We analyse the anisotropic clustering of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) CMASS Data Release 11 (DR11) sample, which consists of galaxies in the redshi…
Planck Data Reconsidered
David Spergel, Raphael Flauger, Renee Hlozek
The tension between the best fit parameters derived by the Planck team and a number of other astronomical measurements suggests either systematics in the astronomical measurements,…

The Clustering of Galaxies in the SDSS-III DR10 Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: No Detectable Colour Dependence of Distance Scale or Growth Rate Measurements
Ashley J. Ross, Lado Samushia, Angela Burden +27
We study the clustering of galaxies, as a function of their colour, from Data Release Ten (DR10) of the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. We select 122,967 galaxies…
Galaxy Infall Kinematics as a Test of Modified Gravity
Ying Zu, D. H. Weinberg, Elise Jennings +2
Infrared modifications of General Relativity (GR) can be revealed by comparing the mass of galaxy clusters estimated from weak lensing to that from infall kinematics. We measure th…
Mock galaxy catalogs using the quick particle mesh method
Martin White, Jeremy L Tinker, Cameron K McBride
Sophisticated analysis of modern large-scale structure surveys requires mock catalogs. Mock catalogs are used to optimize survey design, test reduction and analysis pipelines, make…
