The Cosmically Depressed: Life, Sociology and Identity of Voids
Rien van de Weygaert, Erwin Platen, Esra Tigrak +5
We review and discuss aspects of Cosmic Voids that form the background for our Void Galaxy Survey (see accompanying paper by Stanonik et al.). Following a sketch of the general cha…
Geometry and Morphology of the Cosmic Web: Analyzing Spatial Patterns in the Universe
Rien van de Weygaert, Miguel A. Aragon-Calvo, Bernard J. T. Jones +1
We review the analysis of the Cosmic Web by means of an extensive toolset based on the use of Delaunay and Voronoi tessellations. The Cosmic Web is the salient and pervasive foamli…
Life and Times of Georgy Voronoi
Halyna Syta, Rien van de Weygaert
Georgy Theodosiyovych Voronoi (1868-1908) is famous for his seminal contributions to number theory,perhaps mostly those involving quadratic forms and Voronoi tessellations. He was…
Cosmic Voids: structure, dynamics and galaxies
Rien van de Weygaert, Erwin Platen
In this review we discuss several aspects of Cosmic Voids. Voids are a major component of the large scale distribution of matter and galaxies in the Universe. They are of instrumen…
Cosmology and Cluster Halo Scaling Relations
Pablo A. Araya-Melo, Rien van de Weygaert, Bernard J. T. Jones
We explore the effects of dark matter and dark energy on the dynamical scaling properties of galaxy clusters. We investigate the cluster Faber-Jackson (FJ), Kormendy and Fundamenta…
Polar disk galaxy found in wall between voids
K. Stanonik, E. Platen, M. A. Aragón-Calvo +4
We have found an isolated polar disk galaxy in what appears to be a cosmological wall situated between two voids. This void galaxy is unique as its polar disk was discovered serend…
