The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: the luminosity function of cluster galaxies

Roberto De Propris, M. Colless, S. Driver +27

We have determined the composite luminosity function (LF) for galaxies in 60 clusters from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. The LF spans the range , and is…

Mapping the 3-D Dark Matter potential with weak shear

D. J. Bacon, A. N. Taylor

We investigate the practical implementation of Taylor's (2002) 3-dimensional gravitational potential reconstruction method using weak gravitational lensing, together with the requi…

Clustering around radio galaxies at z~1.5

P. N. Best

The importance of studying old elliptical galaxies at redshift z ~ 1.5 is reviewed, considering both what can be learned by extending studies of the evolution of cluster galaxy sca…

Shear and magnification angular power spectra and higher-order moments from weak gravitational lensing

Andrew J. Barber, A. N. Taylor

We present new results on the gravitational lensing shear and magnification power spectra obtained from numerical simulations of a flat cosmology with a cosmological constant. Thes…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: correlation functions, peculiar velocities and the matter density of the Universe

E. Hawkins, S. Maddox, S. Cole +27

We present a detailed analysis of the two-point correlation function, from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS). We estimate the redshift-space correlation function, xi(s), from…

A single population scheme for FR I and FR II radio galaxies

Ignas Snellen, Philip Best

The presence of two distant FR I radio galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field plus Flanking Fields indicates that the number density of these objects is about 10-50 times higher at z>1…
