Constraints onOmega from the IRAS Redshift Surveys

Abstract

We measure the anisotropy of the redshift-space power spectrum in the 1.2-Jy and QDOT redshift surveys of IRAS-selected galaxies. On large scales, this anisotropy is caused by coherent peculiar motions, and gravitational instability theory predicts a distortion of the power spectrum that depends only on the ratio $\beta \equiv f(\Omega )/b\approx {\Omega }^{0.6}/b$, where Omega is the cosmological density parameter and $b$ is the bias parameter. On small scales, the distortion is dominated by the random velocity dispersion in non-linear structures. We fit the observed anisotropy with an analytic model that incorporates two parameters, beta, and a small-scale velocity dispersion sigma_v. Tests on N-body simulations show that this model recovers beta quite accurately on the scales accessible to the existing IRAS redshift surveys. Applying our procedure to the 1.2-Jy and QDOT surveys, we find beta=0.52 +/- 0.13 and beta=0.54 +/- 0.3, respectively. These results imply Omega approximately 0.35 if galaxies trace mass, or a bias factor of about 2 if Omega=1.
