Groups in the Millennium Simulation and in SDSS DR7
P. Nurmi, P. Heinämäki, T. Sepp +6
The Millennium N-body simulation and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey seventh data release (SDSS DR7) galaxy and galaxy group catalogues are compared to study the properties of galaxy…
Galaxy spin alignment in filaments and sheets: observational evidence
Elmo Tempel, Noam I. Libeskind
Galaxies properties are known to be affected by their environment. One important question is how their angular momentum reflects the surrounding cosmic web. We use the SDSS to inve…
Galaxy structures - Groups, clusters and superclusters
Tiit Sepp, Mirt Gramann
We provide a brief summary of the history of galaxy structure studies. We also introduce several large-scale redshift surveys and summarize the most commonly used methods to identi…
Dark Matter
Jaan Einasto
I give a review of the development of the concept of dark matter. The dark matter story passed through several stages from a minor observational puzzle to a major challenge for the…
Window effect in the power spectrum analysis of a galaxy redshift survey
Takahiro Sato, Gert Hütsi, Gen Nakamura +1
We investigate the effect of the window function on the multipole power spectrum in two different ways. First, we consider the convolved power spectrum including the window effect,…
Detecting filamentary pattern in the cosmic web: a catalogue of filaments for the SDSS
E. Tempel, R. S. Stoica, V. J. Martinez +3
The main feature of the spatial large-scale galaxy distribution is its intricate network of galaxy filaments. This network is spanned by the galaxy locations that can be interprete…
