The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The amplitudes of fluctuations in the 2dFGRS and the CMB, and implications for galaxy biasing

Ofer Lahav, Sarah L. Bridle, Will J. Percival +26

We compare the amplitudes of fluctuations probed by the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and by the latest measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies. By combining the…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The bias of galaxies and the density of the Universe

Licia Verde, Alan F. Heavens, Will J. Percival +27

We compute the bispectrum of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) and use it to measure the bias parameter of the galaxies. This parameter quantifies the strength of clustering…

Evidence for a non-zero Lambda and a low matter density from a combined analysis of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies

George Efstathiou, Stephen Moody, John A. Peacock +24

We perform a joint likelihood analysis of the power spectra of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies under the assumptions…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: A targeted study of catalogued clusters of galaxies

Roberto De Propris, Warrick Couch, Matthew Colless +27

We have carried out a study of known clusters within the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) observed areas and have identified 431 Abell, 173 APM and 343 EDCC clusters. Precise re…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Spectra and redshifts

Matthew Colless, G. B. Dalton, S. J. Maddox +26

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) is designed to measure redshifts for approximately 250000 galaxies. This paper describes the survey design, the spectroscopic observations,…

Radio sources in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey - II. Local radio luminosity functions for AGN and star-forming galaxies at 1.4 GHz

Elaine M. Sadler, Carole A. Jackson, Russell D. Cannon +25

We have cross-matched the 1.4 GHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) with the first 210 fields observed in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS), covering an effective area of 325 square…
