We perform a tomographic structure growth and expansion rate analysis using the monopole, quadrupole and hexadecapole of the redshift-space galaxy power spectrum derived from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-III) Baryon Oscillation…
This work serves two-fold purpose. Firstly, we provide an alternative to the traditional method of determining the growth rate of density perturbations $f(z)$. In usual practice, $f(z)$ can not be directly measured from tracer clustering at…
Low redshift measurements of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) test the late time evolution of the Universe and are a vital probe of Dark Energy. Over the past decade both the 6-degree Field Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) and Sloan Digital Sky…
We analyze the density field of galaxies observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) included in the SDSS Data Release Nine (DR9). DR9 includes spectroscopic redshifts for over 400,000…
The phases as well as the amplitudes of baryonic acoustic oscillations can be extracted out of a galaxy power spectrum and used as a standard ruler in a cosmological test. A non-oscillating phenomenological fitting function is used to…

We report a tight Hubble constant constraint $67.78^{+1.21}_{-1.86}$ km s$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$ (2.26\% precision) derived from galaxy redshift surveys. We combine the BAO measurements from 6dFGS, the SDSS DR7 main galaxies, the BOSS DR12…
In this work we examine the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) in 2D angular and redshift space $\{\theta, \Delta z\}$, with $\Delta z$ denoting the redshift difference between two given angular shells. We thus work in the context of…
Baryonic oscillations in the galaxy power spectrum have been studied as a way of probing dark-energy models. While most studies have focused on spectroscopic surveys at high redshift, large multi-color imaging surveys have already been…

Cosmological inference from weak lensing (WL) surveys is increasingly limited by uncertainties in baryonic physics, which suppress the non-linear matter power spectrum on small scales. Multi-probe analyses that incorporate complementary…
