Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in the Ly-α forest of BOSS quasars

Nicolás G. Busca, Timothée Delubac, James Rich +59

We report a detection of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) feature in the three-dimensional correlation function of the transmitted flux fraction in the \Lya forest of high-red…

The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in the Data Release 9 Spectroscopic Galaxy Sample

Lauren Anderson, Eric Aubourg, Stephen Bailey +73

We present measurements of galaxy clustering from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), which is part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III). These use the Da…

A 2% Distance to z = 0.35 by Reconstructing Baryon Acoustic Oscillations - III : Cosmological Measurements and Interpretation

Kushal T. Mehta, Antonio J. Cuesta, Xiaoying Xu +2

We use the 2% distance measurement from our reconstructed baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) signature using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7 (DR7) Luminous Red…

The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological implications of the large-scale two-point correlation function

Ariel G. Sanchez, C. G. Scoccola, A. J. Ross +53

We obtain constraints on cosmological parameters from the spherically averaged redshift-space correlation function of the CMASS Data Release 9 (DR9) sample of the Baryonic Oscillat…

A 2% Distance to z=0.35 by Reconstructing Baryon Acoustic Oscillations - II: Fitting Techniques

Xiaoying Xu, Nikhil Padmanabhan, Daniel J. Eisenstein +2

We present results from fitting the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) signal in the correlation function obtained from the first application of reconstruction to a galaxy redshift…

A 2% Distance to z=0.35 by Reconstructing Baryon Acoustic Oscillations - I : Methods and Application to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Nikhil Padmanabhan, Xiaoying Xu, Daniel J. Eisenstein +4

We apply the reconstruction technique to the clustering of galaxies from the SDSS DR7 LRG sample, sharpening the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) feature and achieving a 1.9% meas…
