Perturbation theory and excursion set estimates of the probability distribution function of dark matter, and a method for reconstructing the initial distribution function
T. Y. Lam, R. K. Sheth
Nonlinear evolution can sometimes be modelled by a deterministic mapping from initial to final of the local smoothed overdensity. Perturbation theory methods base on this determini…
On estimating redshift and luminosity distributions in photometric redshift surveys
Ravi K. Sheth
The luminosity functions of galaxies and quasars provide invaluable information about galaxy and quasar formation. Estimating the luminosity function from magnitude limited samples…
Strong clustering of underdense regions and the environmental dependence of clustering from Gaussian initial conditions
Ummi Abbas, Ravi K. Sheth
We discuss two slightly counter-intuitive findings about the environmental dependence of clustering in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. First, we find that the relation between cluste…
The Three-Point Correlation Function of Luminous Red Galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Gauri V. Kulkarni, Robert C. Nichol, Ravi K. Sheth +3
We present measurements of the redshift-space three-point correlation function of 50,967 Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) from Data Release 3 (DR3) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDS…
`Eppur Si Muove': On The Motion of the Acoustic Peak in the Correlation Function
Robert E. Smith, Roman Scoccimarro, Ravi K. Sheth
The baryonic acoustic signature in the large-scale clustering pattern of galaxies has been detected in the two-point correlation function. Its precise spatial scale has been forwar…
The probability distribution function of the SZ power spectrum: an analytical approach
Pengjie Zhang, Ravi K. Sheth
The Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) signal is highly non-Gaussian, so the SZ power spectrum (along with the mean parameter) does not provide a complete description of the SZ effect. Th…
