Characterizing cluster morphology using vector-valued Minkowski functionals
Claus Beisbart, Thomas Buchert
The morphology of galaxy clusters is quantified using Minkowski functionals, especially the vector-valued ones, which contain directional information and are related to curvature c…
A fresh look at the adhesion approximation
Thomas Buchert
I report on a systematic derivation of the phenomenological ``adhesion approximation'' from gravitational instability together with a brief evaluation of the related status of anal…
Averaging Inhomogeneous Cosmologies -- a Dialogue
Thomas Buchert
The averaging problem for inhomogeneous cosmologies is discussed in the form of a disputation between two cosmologists, one of them (RED) advocating the standard model, the other (…
The Significance of the Fluctuations in the IRAS 1.2 Jy Galaxy Catalogue
Martin Kerscher, Jens Schmalzing, Thomas Buchert +1
In an analysis of the IRAS 1.2 Jy redshift catalogue, with emphasis on the separate examination of northern and southern parts (in galactic coordinates), we found that the clusteri…
