The Clustering of Galaxies in the SDSS-III DR10 Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: No Detectable Colour Dependence of Distance Scale or Growth Rate Measurements

Ashley J. Ross, Lado Samushia, Angela Burden +27

We study the clustering of galaxies, as a function of their colour, from Data Release Ten (DR10) of the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. We select 122,967 galaxies…

The one-dimensional Ly-alpha forest power spectrum from BOSS

Nathalie Palanque-Delabrouille, Christophe Yèche, Arnaud Borde +33

We have developed two independent methods to measure the one-dimensional power spectrum of the transmitted flux in the Lyman- forest. The first method is based on a Fourier tran…
