A diatribe on expanding space
J. A. Peacock
Some comments are made on the usefulness or otherwise of the concept of `expanding space' in cosmology. These notes are an expanded version of material first published in 2001 but…
Measuring the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation scale using the SDSS and 2dFGRS
Will J. Percival, Shaun Cole, Daniel J. Eisenstein +4
We introduce a method to constrain general cosmological models using Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) distance measurements from galaxy samples covering different redshift ranges,…
Large-scale surveys and cosmic structure
J. A. Peacock
These lectures deal with our current knowledge of the matter distribution in the universe, focusing on how this is studied via the large-scale structure seen in galaxy surveys. We…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Final Data Release
Matthew Colless, Bruce A. Peterson, Carole Jackson +25
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) has obtained spectra for 245591 sources, mainly galaxies, brighter than a nominal extinction-corrected magnitude limit of b_J=19.45. Reliabl…
Studying large-scale structure with the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey
J. A. Peacock, M. Colless, I. Baldry +25
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey is the first to observe more than 100,000 redshifts. This allows precise measurements of many of the key statistics of galaxy clustering, in particul…
Public Release of N-body simulation and related data by the Virgo consortium
C. S. Frenk, J. M. Colberg, H. M. P. Couchman +10
We are making available on the WWW a selection of the archived data from N-body simulations carried out by the Virgo consortium and related groups. This currently includes: (i) tim…
