Limitations of Bayesian Evidence Applied to Cosmology
G. Efstathiou
There has been increasing interest by cosmologists in applying Bayesian techniques, such as Bayesian Evidence, for model selection. A typical example is in assessing whether observ…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Power-spectrum analysis of the final dataset and cosmological implications
S. Cole, W. J. Percival, J. A. Peacock +28
We present a power spectrum analysis of the final 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, employing a direct Fourier method. The sample used comprises 221,414 galaxies with measured redshifts.…
The Statistical Significance of the Low CMB Mulitipoles
G. Efstathiou
The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) has measured lower amplitudes for the temperature quadrupole and octopole anisotropies than expected in the best fitting (concordanc…
Fred Hoyle: Contributions to the Theory of Galaxy Formation
G. Efstathiou
I review two fundamental contributions that Fred Hoyle made to the theory of galaxy formation. Hoyle was the first to propose that protogalaxies acquired their angular momentum via…
Is the Low CMB Quadrupole a Signature of Spatial Curvature?
G. Efstathiou
The temperature anisotropy power spectrum measured with the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) at high multipoles is in spectacular agreement with an inflationary Lambda-d…
