Simulating Our Cosmological Neighborhood: Mock Catalogs for Velocity Analysis
Tsafrir Kolatt, Avishai Dekel, Galit Ganon +1
We describe the construction of an N-body simulation that mimics the true velocity and mass-density fields in a box of side 256\hmpc about the Local Group , and the production of m…
Spectral Classification of Galaxies Along the Hubble Sequence
Dennis Zaritsky, Ann I. Zabludoff, Jeffrey A. Willick
We develop a straightforward and quantitative two-step method for spectroscopically classifying galaxies from the low signal-to-noise (S/N) optical spectra typical of galaxy redshi…
The density and peculiar velocity fields of nearby galaxies
Michael A. Strauss, Jeffrey A. Willick
We review the quantitative science that can be and has been done with redshift and peculiar velocity surveys of galaxies in the nearby universe. After a brief background setting th…
OMEGA AND BIASING FROM OPTICAL GALAXIES VERSUS POTENT MASS
M. J. Hudson, A. Dekel, S. Courteau +2
The mass density field in the local universe, recovered by the POTENT method from peculiar velocities of 3000 galaxies, is compared with the density field of optically-select…
