The ESO Slice Project (ESP) galaxy redshift survey: VI Groups of Galaxies

M. Ramella, G. Zamorani, E. Zucca +17

In this paper we identify objectively and analyze groups of galaxies in the recently completed ESP survey. We find 231 groups above the number overdensity threshold delta(rho)/rho=…

Real and Redshift-Space Clustering in the ESP Galaxy Redshift Survey

L. Guzzo, J. G. Bartlett, A. Cappi

We discuss the two-point correlation properties of galaxies in the ESO Slice Project (ESP) redshift survey, both in redshift and real space. The redshift-space correlation function…

The Redshift and Real-Space Correlation Functions from the ESP Galaxy Redshift Survey

L. Guzzo, J. G. Bartlett, A. Cappi

We discuss the behaviour of the redshift- and real-space correlation functions from the ESO Slice Project (ESP) galaxy redshift survey. xi(s) for the whole survey is positive out t…

Biasing and high-order statistics from the SSRS2

C. Benoist, A. Cappi, L. N. da Costa +3

We analyze different volume-limited samples extracted from the Southern Sky Redshift Survey (SSRS2), using counts-in-cells to compute the Count Probability Distribution Function (C…

The ESO Slice Project (ESP) galaxy redshift survey IV. A discussion of systematic biases in galaxy redshift determinations

A. Cappi, G. Zamorani, E. Zucca +17

We present a detailed discussion of the redshift errors associated to the ESO Slice Project measurements. For a subsample of 742 galaxies with redshifts determined both from the ab…

The ESO Slice Project (ESP) galaxy redshift survey: III. The Sample

G. Vettolani, E. Zucca, R. Merighi +17

The ESO Slice Project (ESP) is a galaxy redshift survey extending over about 23 square degrees, in a region near the South Galactic Pole. The survey is ~85% complete to the limitin…

Is the Universe a fractal? Results from the SSRS2

A. Cappi, C. Benoist, L. N. da Costa +1

We perform a fractal analysis of the Southern Sky Redshift Survey 2, following the methods prescribed by Pietronero and collaborators, to check their claim that the galaxy distribu…

The ESO Slice Project [ESP] galaxy redshift survey: V. Evidence for a D=3 sample dimensionality

R. Scaramella, L. Guzzo, G. Zamorani +17

The issue of the approximate isotropy and homogeneity of the observable universe is one of the major topics in modern Cosmology: the common use of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker [F…

Properties of Very Luminous Galaxies

A. Cappi, L. N. da Costa, C. Benoist +2

Recent analysis of the SSRS2 data based on cell-counts and two-point correlation function has shown that very luminous galaxies are much more strongly clustered than fainter galaxi…
