Maximum-Likelihood Comparisons of Tully-Fisher and Redshift Data: Constraints on Omega and Biasing

Jeffrey A. Willick, Michael A. Strauss, Avishai Dekel +1

We compare Tully-Fisher (TF) data for 838 galaxies within cz=3000 km/sec from the Mark III catalog to the peculiar velocity and density fields predicted from the 1.2 Jy IRAS redshi…

Homogeneous Velocity-Distance Data for Peculiar Velocity Analysis. III. The Mark III Catalog of Galaxy Peculiar Velocities

Jeffrey A. Willick, Stephane Courteau, S. M. Faber +3

This is the third in a series of papers in which we assemble and analyze a homogeneous catalog of peculiar velocity data. In Papers I and II, we described the Tully-Fisher (TF) red…

Testing the Hubble Law with the IRAS 1.2 Jy Redshift Survey

Daniel Koranyi, Michael A. Strauss

We test and reject the claim of Segal et al. (1993) that the correlation of redshifts and flux densities in a complete sample of IRAS galaxies favors a quadratic redshift-distance…

Recent Advances in Redshift Surveys of the Local Universe

Michael A. Strauss

I review progress in the past few years in studying the large-scale structure of the universe through redshift surveys of galaxies. Of the many statistical methods used to describe…

The Large-Scale Velocity Field

Michael A. Strauss

I summarize both observational and theoretical developments in the last few years in measuring and understanding the large-scale velocity field of galaxies, with special attention…

The two-point correlation function and morphological segregation in the Optical Redshift Survey

Sune Hermit, Basilio X. Santiago, Ofer Lahav +4

We study the clustering of galaxies in real and redshift space using the Optical Redshift Survey (ORS). We estimate the two point correlation function in redshift space, , fo…
