Combined analysis of the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect and cosmological implications
Tommaso Giannantonio, Ryan Scranton, Robert G. Crittenden +4
We present a global measurement of the integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect obtained by cross-correlating all relevant large scale galaxy data sets with the cosmic microwave backgro…
Cosmology with Galaxy Correlations
Robert C. Nichol
In this review, I outline the use of galaxy correlations to constrain cosmological parameters. As with the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the density of dark and baryonic matte…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey: Search Algorithm and Follow-up Observations
Masao Sako, B. Bassett, A. Becker +47
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey has identified a large number of new transient sources in a 300 sq. deg. region along the celestial equator during its first two se…
Measuring the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation scale using the SDSS and 2dFGRS
Will J. Percival, Shaun Cole, Daniel J. Eisenstein +4
We introduce a method to constrain general cosmological models using Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) distance measurements from galaxy samples covering different redshift ranges,…
The Three-Point Correlation Function of Luminous Red Galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Gauri V. Kulkarni, Robert C. Nichol, Ravi K. Sheth +3
We present measurements of the redshift-space three-point correlation function of 50,967 Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) from Data Release 3 (DR3) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDS…
Optimising Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Surveys - I: Testing the concordance LCDM cosmology
David Parkinson, Chris Blake, Martin Kunz +3
We optimize the design of future spectroscopic redshift surveys for constraining the dark energy via precision measurements of the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO), with particul…
