The two point angular correlation function is an excellent measure of structure in the universe. To extract from it the three dimensional power spectrum, one must invert Limber's Equation. Here we perform this inversion using a Bayesian…

We use flux-transmission correlations in \Lya forests to measure the imprint of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO). The study uses spectra of 157,783 quasars in the redshift range $2.1\le z \le 3.5$ from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)…

We present a new method that simultaneously solves for cosmology and galaxy bias on non-linear scales. The method uses the halo model to analytically describe the (non-linear) matter distribution, and the conditional luminosity function…

We compare reduced three-point correlations $Q$ of matter, haloes (as proxies for galaxies) and their cross correlations, measured in a total simulated volume of $\sim100 \ (h^{-1} \text{Gpc})^{3}$, to predictions from leading order…

We calculate the correlation function of 13,904 galaxy clusters of z \leq 0.4 selected from the cluster catalog of Wen, Han & Liu. The correlation function can be fitted with a power-law model \xi(r)=(r/R_0)^{\gamma} on the scales of…

Baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) underpin the key cosmological results from modern spectroscopic galaxy surveys, but nonlinear gravitational evolution limits the precision achievable with traditional analysis methods. To overcome this, we…

We measure the imprint of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) in the galaxy clustering pattern at the highest redshift achieved to date, z=0.6, using the distribution of N=132,509 emission-line galaxies in the WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey. We…

Consistency Relations (CR) for the Large Scale Structure are exact equalities between correlation functions of different order. These relations descend from the equivalence principle and hold for primordial perturbations generated by…

Baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) provide a robust standard ruler with which to measure the acceleration of the Universe. The BAO feature has so far been detected in optical galaxy surveys. Intensity mapping of neutral hydrogen emission…
