Measuring the Cosmic Web
arXiv:1109.1436 · doi:10.1515/astro-2017-0290
Abstract
A quantitative study of the clustering properties of the cosmic web as a function of absolute magnitude and colour is presented using the SDSS Data Release 7 galaxy survey. Mark correlations are included in the analysis. We compare our results with mock galaxy samples obtained with four different semi-analytical models of galaxy formation imposed on the merger trees of the Millenium simulation. The clustering of both red and blue galaxies is studied separately.
