A high-dimensional look at VIPERS galaxies
B. R. Granett, U. Abbas, C. Adami +44
We investigate how galaxies in VIPERS (the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey) inhabit the cosmological density field by examining the correlations across the observable pa…
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): On the correct recovery of the count-in-cell probability distribution function
J. Bel, E. Branchini, C. Di Porto +45
We compare three methods to measure the count-in-cell probability density function of galaxies in a spectroscopic redshift survey. From this comparison we found that when the sampl…
Constraints on a scale-dependent bias from galaxy clustering
L. Amendola, E. Menegoni, C. Di Porto +2
We forecast the future constraints on scale-dependent parametrizations of galaxy bias and their impact on the estimate of cosmological parameters from the power spectrum of galaxie…
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey - Searching for Cosmic Voids
D. Micheletti, A. Iovino, A. J. Hawken +46
The characterisation of cosmic voids gives unique information about the large-scale distribution of galaxies, their evolution and the cosmological model. We identify and characteri…

C. Di Porto, E. Branchini, J. Bel +46
We use the first release of the VImos Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey of galaxies (VIPERS) of ~50,000 objects to measure the biasing relation between galaxies and mass in the…
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): A quiescent formation of massive red-sequence galaxies over the past 9 Gyr
A. Fritz, M. Scodeggio, O. Ilbert +46
We explore the evolution of the Colour-Magnitude Relation (CMR) and Luminosity Function (LF) at 0.4<z<1.3 from the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS) using ~45,000…
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). Never mind the gaps: comparing techniques to restore homogeneous sky coverage
O. Cucciati, B. R. Granett, E. Branchini +28
[Abridged] Non-uniform sampling and gaps in sky coverage are common in galaxy redshift surveys, but these effects can degrade galaxy counts-in-cells and density estimates. We carry…
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): from the galaxy clustering ratio measured at
J. Bel, C. Marinoni, B. R. Granett +47
We use a sample of about 22,000 galaxies at from the VIPERS PDR-1 catalogue, to constrain the cosmological model through a measurement of the galaxy {\it clustering ra…
