Observations of redshift-space distortions in spectroscopic galaxy surveys offer an attractive method for observing the build-up of cosmological structure, which depends both on the expansion rate of the Universe and our theory of gravity.…

We investigate the ability of state-of-the-art redshift-space distortions models for the galaxy anisotropic two-point correlation function \xi(r_p, \pi), to recover precise and unbiased estimates of the linear growth rate of structure f,…

The large-scale structure is a major source of cosmological information. However, next-generation photometric galaxy surveys will only provide a distorted view of cosmic structures due to large redshift uncertainties. To address the need…

To understand the nature of the accelerated expansion of the Universe, we need to combine constraints on the expansion rate and growth of structure. The growth rate is usually extracted from three dimensional galaxy maps by exploiting the…

In a recent study, we developed a method to model the impact of photometric redshift uncertainty on the two-point correlation function (2PCF). In this method, we can obtain both the intrinsic clustering strength and the photometric redshift…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey is the first to measure more than 100,000 redshifts. This allows precise measurements of many of the key statistical measures of galaxy clustering, in particular redshift-space distortions and the large-scale…

Redshift space distortion (RSD) is a powerful way of measuring the growth of structure and testing General Relativity, but it is limited by cosmic variance and the degeneracy between galaxy bias b and the growth rate factor f. The…
