Observations of galaxy clustering are made in redshift space, which results in distortions to the underlying isotropic distribution of galaxies. These redshift-space distortions (RSD) not only degrade important features of the matter…

This paper focusses on the barely understood gap between the weakly nonlinear regime of structure formation and the onset of the virialized regime. While the former is accessed through perturbative calculations and the latter through…

It has been found recently that propagators, e.g. the cross-correlation spectra of the cosmic fields with the initial density field, decay exponentially at large-k in an Eulerian description of the dynamics. We explore here similar…
The determination of the density parameter $\Omega_0$ from the large-scale distribution of galaxies is one of the major goals of modern cosmology. However, if galaxies are biased tracers of the underlying mass distribution, linear…
