An Inversion Method for Measuring Beta in Large Redshift Surveys

Stephen D. Landy, Alexander S. Szalay

A precision method for determining the value of Beta= Omega_m^{0.6}/b, where b is the galaxy bias parameter, is presented. In contrast to other existing techniques that focus on es…

The Pairwise Velocity Distribution Function of Galaxies in the LCRS, 2dF, and SDSS Redshift Surveys

Stephen D. Landy

A comparison of the galaxy pairwise velocity distribution functions determined from the three largest publicly available galaxy redshift surveys is presented. This is the first dir…

Loose Groups of Galaxies in the Las Campanas Redshift Survey

D. L. Tucker, A. Oemler, Y. Hashimoto +6

A ``friends-of-friends'' percolation algorithm has been used to extract a catalogue of dn/n = 80 density enhancements (groups) from the six slices of the Las Campanas Redshift Surv…

Cosmological Parameters from the Eigenmode Analysis of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey

Takahiko Matsubara, Alexander S. Szalay, Stephen D. Landy

We present the first results of the Karhunen-Loève (KL) eigenmodes applied to real data of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (LCRS) to simultaneously measure the values of the redsh…

Redshift Space Distortions of the Correlation Function in Wide Angle Galaxy Surveys

Alexander S. Szalay, Takahiko Matsubara, Stephen D. Landy

Using a novel two-dimensional coordinate system, we have derived a particularly simple way to express the redshift distortions in galaxy redshift surveys with arbitrary geometry in…

Groups of Galaxies in the Las Campanas Redshift Survey

D. L. Tucker, Y. Hashimoto, R. P. Kirshner +5

A "friends-of-friends" percolation algorithm has been used to extract a catalogue of drho/rho = 80 density enhancements (groups) from the six slices of the Las Campanas Redshift Su…
